But any time memory and application logic moves into Python land, it’s game over. For example, we should care less if a proposed mobile chip or compiler optimization slows down SPEC, and care more if it speeds up Python or JavaScript! There’s some work on hardware proposals for these systems, like Zhu et al.,

Thinking back on how SDLC started and what it is today, the only reasons for its success can be accounted to efficiency, speed and most importantly automation – DevOps and cloud-based solutions can be considered major contributors here (after all DevOps is 41% less time-consuming than traditional ops ). .

Hardware Past As Performance Prologue. Regardless, the overall story for hardware progress remains grim, particularly when we recall how long device replacement cycles are: Tap for a larger version. Recall that single-core performance most directly translates into speed on the web. Mind The Gap. Tap for a larger version.

You need a business stakeholder buy-in, and to get it, you need to establish a case study, or a proof of concept using the Performance API on how speed benefits metrics and Key Performance Indicators ( KPIs ) they care about. Note : If you use Page Speed Insights or Page Speed Insights API (no, it isn’t deprecated!),

This saves clients traffic — sometimes traffic which the client is paying for. It also allows the project to be loaded faster, which is pretty important in regards to the growing mobile share and new markets with slow connection speeds and fragmented internet coverage. It may appear that the game is not worth the candle.
