In the radio portion of the network, 5G buffer sizes are 5x 4G, but within the wired portion of the network only about 2.5x (this is with a 1000 Mbps provisioned cloud server). When it comes to latency the authors measured RTTs for four 5G base stations spread across the city, and 20 other Internet servers nationwide.

The internet accounts for an estimated 3–4% of global emissions — equivalent to some countries. The carbon emissions of the internet are roughly equivalent to those generated by the entire aviation industry, or the whole of Africa. For example, changing our database architecture to be more efficient could save on server costs.

Let’s face it – the ideal load test emulates real world traffic, yet most load testing software doesn’t come close. A series of GET requests from an in-house server can’t possibly replicate what actually happens when a website sees a sudden increase in users from all over the world. Conclusion.

This metric shows how much time it takes for the server to respond with something. This metric is important, but quite vague because it can include anything — starting from server rendering time and ending up with latency problems. This saves clients traffic — sometimes traffic which the client is paying for.
