The first—and often most surprising for people to learn—thing that I want to draw your attention to is that TTFB counts one whole round trip of latency. The reason is because mobile networks are, as a rule, high latency connections. Armed with this knowledge, we can soon understand why TTFB can often increase so dramatically on mobile.
