Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. On the other hand, we have hardware constraints on memory and CPU due to JavaScript parsing times (we’ll talk about them in detail later). A good starting point is to choose a good default stack for your application.
