Cue server-timing headers Historically, when looking at page speed, we've had the tendency to ignore TTFB when trying to optimize the user experience. The use of server-timing headers by content delivery networks closes a big gap. Latency – How much time does it take to deliver a packet from A to B.

You need to beware that slow server response times can significantly increase TTFB, often due to server overload, network issues, or un-optimized logic on the server side.

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. A Primer on Speed. Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).

We now live in an age when it's possible to stream high definition TV, and yet we are not satisfied. We become annoyed when we run a speed test on our broadband provider only to find that, on a good day, we are getting maybe half of the rated download speed we are paying for, and the upload speed is likely much worse.

Latency is traditionally worse on mobile Despite improved network conditions in some parts of the world, round trip time is still much worse for mobile than desktop. However, if that were the case, why do we see a smaller divide between mobile and desktop on metrics that are certainly more sensitive to network conditions?

Thanks to progress in networks and browsers (but not devices), a more generous global budget cap has emerged for sites constructed the "modern" way: ~100KiB of HTML/CSS/fonts and ~300-350KiB of JS (compressed) is the new rule-of-thumb limit for at least the next year or two.

Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. This allows the checkpoint process to maintain its speed while the random nature of the I/O requests deters any elevator seeking that could ​​ affect ​​ other I/O operations.
