When it comes to network performance, there are two main limiting factors that will slow you down: bandwidth and latency. Latency is defined as…. Where bandwidth deals with capacity, latency is more about speed of transfer 2. As a web user—often transferring lots of smaller files—reductions in latency will almost always be a welcome improvement. and reduction in latency. This lower number is effectively your latency.

I work quickly on my computer and I get frustrated when I am forced to wait on an operation that should be fast. A persistent nuisance on my over-powered home laptop is that closing windows on the taskbar is slow. I right-click on an entry, wait for the menu to appear, and then select “Close window”. The mouse movement should be the slow part of this but instead I find that the delay before the menu appears is the longest component.

Currently, publicly available wifi hotspots are the preferred networks for video consumption, but poor network infrastructure also leads to unbearable video buffering and latency. When delivering video over-the-top (OTT), the internet is the principal highway for distributing this content. However, OTT streaming delivery requires something faster than what the internet offers in terms of how chunks/fragments are supposed to flow.

The Xeon Phi x200 (Knights Landing) has a lot of modes of operation (selected at boot time), and the latency and bandwidth characteristics are slightly different for each mode. It is also important to remember that the latency can be different for each physical address, depending on the location of the requesting core, the location of the coherence agent responsible for that address, and the location of the memory controller for that address.

While there is plenty of well-documented benefits to using a connection pooler, there are some arguments to be made against using one: Introducing a middleware in the communication inevitably introduces some latency. A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, ‘threads’ were a programming novelty rarely used and seldom trusted. In that environment, the first PostgreSQL developers decided forking a process for each connection to the database is the safest choice.

Every new origin we need to visit needs a connection opening, and that can be very costly: DNS resolution, TCP handshakes, and TLS negotiation all add up, and the story gets worse the higher the latency of the connection is. Okay, so not exactly terrifying, but Trainline, a client of mine, found that by reducing latency by 300ms, customers spent an extra £8m a year. On a slower, higher-latency connection, the story is much, mush worse.

This system also had significantly lower memory latency than many contemporary systems (which were still using front-side bus architectures and separate “NorthBridge” chips). In the 2007 SPECfp_rate tests, a similar phenomenon was seen, and required the addition of a third component to the model: memory latency. In these tests, we did not have the same ability to vary memory latency that I had with the 2007 Opteron systems.

This is because file-size is only one aspect of web performance, and whatever the file-size is, the resource is still sat on top of a lot of other factors and constants—latency, packet loss, etc. Put another way, file-size savings help you to cram data into lower bandwidth, but if you’re latency-bound, the speed at which those admittedly fewer chunks of data arrive will not change.
