As we will see, QUIC and HTTP/3 indeed have great web performance potential, but mainly for users on slow networks. If your average visitor is on a fast cabled or cellular network, they probably won’t benefit from the new protocols all that much. Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).

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.

Some are accessed via the internet while some of them are installed on the user’s computer. Let’s briefly describe the basic definitions of each of them first and then describe in detail the underlying differences that make them fall apart in certifying the quality of each of them. These have clients and servers in their architecture.

TServerless : We sat with a solution architect, apparently they are aware of the latency issue and suggested to ditch api gw and build our own solution. Right now api gw is good enough for our poc, but definitely not for our production load. Stand under Explain the Cloud Like I'm 10 (35 nearly 5 star reviews).

I've got a long blog post brewing on this, but jumping to the end, an operable definition is: A browser is an application that can register with an OS to handle http and https navigations by default. Modern browsers like Chrome and Samsung Internet support a long list of features that make web apps more powerful and keep users safer.

Here's some output from my zfsdist tool, in bcc/BPF, which measures ZFS latency as a histogram on Linux: # zfsdist. Tracing ZFS operation latency. At my employer we sometimes use SR-IOV for direct network interface access, and NVMe for direct disk access. Hit Ctrl-C to end. ^C x series. Details in the appended shortlog. [.].
