In the simplest case, you have a growing workload, and you optimize it to run more efficiently so that you don’t need to buy or rent additional hardware, so your carbon footprint stays the same, but the carbon per transaction or operation is going down. I’ve written before about how to tune out retry storms.

Before you begin tuning your website or application, you must first figure out which metrics matter most to your users and establish some achievable benchmarks. Just because everything works perfectly during production testing doesn’t mean that will be the case when your website is flooded with traffic.

QUIC is needed because TCP, which has been around since the early days of the Internet, was not really built with maximum efficiency in mind. For example, if the device is a firewall, it might be configured to block all traffic containing (unknown) extensions. For example, TCP requires a “ handshake ” to set up a new connection.

For example, you could reduce compression efficiency , because that works better with more data. As such, a micro-optimization is, again, how you probably need to fine-tune things on a low level to really benefit from it. mvfst (Facebook), MsQuic , (Microsoft), (Google), ngtcp2 , LSQUIC (Litespeed), picoquic , quicly (Fastly).

Error monitoring can get increasingly complicated as you deal with bugs reported by users and your production team, which is why having an efficient error tracking workflow from the beginning is so important. Not all back-end errors affect the user experience, but keeping track of them can prove helpful when tuning your app.

One aspect of performance is about how efficiently a transport protocol can use a network’s full (physical) bandwidth (i.e. As such, tuning congestion logic is usually only done by a select few developers, and evolution is slow. Initial tests by Google , for example, show low percentage improvements for its use cases.
