The Morning Paper

SEPTEMBER 19, 2019

There were so many interesting papers at the conference this year though that I haven’t been able to cover nearly as many as I would like. We hear a lot from Google and Microsoft about their cloud platforms, but not quite so much from the other key industry players. So it’s great to see some papers from Alibaba and Tencent here.

Some examples of the latter are heavily cached websites, as well as single-page apps that periodically fetch small updates via APIs and other protocols such as DNS-over-QUIC. Initial tests by Google , for example, show low percentage improvements for its use cases. This is why there is a split between client and server CIDs in QUIC.

You may have read some blog posts or heard conference talks on this topic and think you know the answers. However, many other devices are sitting between the client and the server that also have their own TCP code on board (examples include firewalls, load balancers, routers, caching servers, proxies, etc.).

Ilya Grigorik’s recent Velocity conference presentation explored the browser's critical rendering path and highlighted exactly what it takes to deliver a mobile page within one second.

I think that maybe the small counter argument here is if you Google, “How to do X with React,” you’re going to get half a dozen different approaches to doing that thing.
