Time to First Byte: What It Is and Why It Matters

CSS Wizardry

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. For example, request collapsing , edge-side includes , etc.). But what else is TTFB?

Seamless offloading of web app computations from mobile device to edge clouds via HTML5 Web Worker migration

The Morning Paper

Edge servers are the middle ground – more compute power than a mobile device, but with latency of just a few ms. The kind of edge server envisaged here might, for example, be integrated with your WiFi access point. One example from the paper is an application using the ammo.js Why would we want to live migrate web workers?

For example, when running tests, the state of the device will change from “available for testing” to “in test.” When a new hardware device is connected, the Local Registry detects and collects a set of information about it, such as networking information and ESN. In this blog post, we will focus on the latter feature set.
