Meanwhile, developer behaviour offers little hope: Median mobile JavaScript payloads have only grown since 2016, now hovering above 400KiB of script transferred, or nearly 2.5MiB of uncompressed JS. In 2016, Jio swept over the subcontinent like a monsoon dropping a torrent of 4G infrastructure and free data rather than rain.

Last time around we looked at the DeathStarBench suite of microservices-based benchmark applications and learned that microservices systems can be especially latency sensitive, and that hotspots can propagate through a microservices architecture in interesting ways. When available, it can use hardware level performance counters.

HTML, CSS, images, and fonts can all be parsed and run at near wire speeds on low-end hardware, but JavaScript is at least three times more expensive, byte-for-byte. It's clear that developers are out of touch with market ground-truth , but it's not obvious why. But that's not the whole story! This was not a fast box.

One of the most surprising results has been the frequent occurrence of “ambush by JavaScript” : We need a new term for the business-opportunity wastage that modern front-end development has created. Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. Deciding what benchmark to use for a performance budget is crucial.

In many organizations, front-end developers know exactly what common underlying problems are and what loading patterns should be used to fix them. So every time a conversation about further development happens, performance is a part of that conversation as well. Establish a performance culture. thanks, Guy Podjarny! Large preview ).

Infrastructure Optimization. There are 200 Engineers(DevOps/OPS/QA/Developers/…), the rest are sales, marketing, support, product management, HR, etc. If you develop something then you own the lifecycle of that product, which means you would work with QA, DevOps to ensure it’s tested/deployed.
