In 2016, Google made it clear that since mobile traffic is more than all else, mobile-friendly websites will be prioritised when a user searches on mobile. IoT (Internet of things) devices have been on an increase for a long time now. In 2021, more than 23 billion IoT devices were active and connected to the internet.

It’s also one of the reasons we can keep using the Internet with many concurrent users, because it smartly limits each user’s bandwidth usage to their fair share. As another example, most applications on the Internet use TCP internally to ensure that all of their data are transmitted in full. Did You Know?

These tools run page loads on simulated networks and devices and then tell you what the metrics were for that test run. LCP is going to be very dependent on network conditions and the processing power of devices being used (and a lot of your users are likely using a lot of lower-powered devices than you realize! ).

There was a time when standing up a website or application was simple and straightforward and not the complex networks they are today. By definition, a distributed system is any system that comprises of multiple components on variety of machines that work together to appear as a single, organized system. The recipe was straightforward.

Meanwhile, on Android, the #2 and #3 sources of web traffic do not respect browser choice. 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. "What, then, is a 'browser'?"

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. An often used metaphor is that of a pipe used to transport water. Congestion Control.

At my employer we sometimes use SR-IOV for direct network interface access, and NVMe for direct disk access. The odd time we hit them, we'll take the "oops message" – a dump of the kernel stack trace and other details from the system log – and search the Internet. x series. Details in the appended shortlog.
