Something like page speed optimization was always left to the developers to worry about. In the meantime, it got me thinking: Is there anything designers can do when creating mobile websites to help developers optimize for speed? Developers are already optimizing front end performance with: Fast web hosting. Minification.

AMP provides a framework for developers to use to build their site with good performance baked in—not entirely unlike Bootstrap or Foundation does for responsive design. They are able to selectively load things that will appear in the initial viewport and focus heavily on ensuring AMP pages are prerender and cache friendly.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. 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.

AVF modeling was developed for such faults. Recently, Meta and Google reported the occurrence of SDCs in their fleet, which raised alarm bells that there may be hitherto unknown root causes for faults in modern processors. Therefore, testing alone is unlikely to be the definitive solution to address these new faults.

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. One distinct trend is a belief that a JavaScript framework and Single-Page Architecture (SPA) is a must for PWA development.
