A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. Colleagues/Internet I love using [Linux performance tools]. But I also love solving issues quickly, and sometimes that means just asking colleagues or searching the Internet. Microbenchmark os::javaTimeMillis() on both systems.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. For high-pressure points like animation, it’s best to do nothing else where you can and the absolute minimum where you can't.

You’ve probably heard things like: “HTTP/3 is much faster than HTTP/2 when there is packet loss”, or “HTTP/3 connections have less latency and take less time to set up”, and probably “HTTP/3 can send data more quickly and can send more resources in parallel”. However, it is extremely challenging to actually deploy them at Internet scale.
