Browsers will cache tools popular among vocal, leading-edge developers. There's plenty of space for caching most popular frameworks. The best available proxy data also suggests that shared caches would have a minimal positive effect on performance. Browsers now understand the classic shared HTTP cache behaviour as a privacy bug.

So if you want to design a system that will offer good real-world performance, it’s really useful to have benchmarks that accurately represent real-world workloads. This benchmark can synthetically generate more precise key-value queries that represent the reads and writes of key-value stores to the underlying storage system.

Simply put, compression allows the web server to send smaller files to your web site viewers. When someone enters your URL and requests your site, their browser will indicate to the web server that it understands compression (and which type it understands). What is HTTP Compression?

For the longest time, hosting static files on CDNs was the de facto standard for performance tuning website pages. The host offered browser caching advantages, better stability, and storage on fast edge servers across strategic geolocations. Not only did it have performance benefits, but it was also convenient for developers.

Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). This is one of the main reasons why content delivery networks (CDNs) exist: They place servers physically closer to the end user in order to reduce latency, and thus delay, as much as possible. and prior (a)).
