We are standing on the eve of the 5G era… 5G, as a monumental shift in cellular communication technology, holds tremendous potential for spurring innovations across many vertical industries, with its promised multi-Gbps speed, sub-10 ms low latency, and massive connectivity. Throughput and latency. Application performance.

Reducing CPU Utilization to now only consume 15% of initially provisioned hardware. Missing Cache Settings – Make sure you cache resources that don’t change often on the browser or use a CDN. Missing caching layers, e.g. provide a read-only cache for static data. Missing retry and failover implementations.

For example, we should care less if a proposed mobile chip or compiler optimization slows down SPEC, and care more if it speeds up Python or JavaScript! Are caches large enough for this code? There’s some work on hardware proposals for these systems, like Zhu et al., Is there room for accelerators? MICRO 15 , Gope et al.,

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. Hardware Past As Performance Prologue. Regardless, the overall story for hardware progress remains grim, particularly when we recall how long device replacement cycles are: Tap for a larger version.

A Primer on Speed. Discussing performance and “speed” can quickly get complex, because many underlying aspects contribute to a web-page loading “slowly”. It is physically limited by the speed of light or, practically, how fast signals can travel in wires or in the open air. also “only” take two round trips ((b) is rarely shown).

JavaScript is the single most expensive part of any page in ways that are a function of both network capacity and device speed. Contended, over-subscribed cells can make “fast” networks brutally slow, transport variance can make TCP much less efficient , and the bursty nature of web traffic works against us.

Plus a service worker that caches all static assets and serves them for repeat views, along with cached versions of articles that a reader has already visited. The reasons for it are numerous, but the most important one is a huge difference in network conditions and device hardware across the world.

You need a business stakeholder buy-in, and to get it, you need to establish a case study, or a proof of concept using the Performance API on how speed benefits metrics and Key Performance Indicators ( KPIs ) they care about.
