What Web Designers Can Do To Speed Up Mobile Websites. What Web Designers Can Do To Speed Up Mobile Websites. I recently wrote a blog post for a web designer client about page speed and why it matters. However, their focus has always been on making a great-looking and effective design. Suzanne Scacca.
SQL Server According to Bob
SEPTEMBER 26, 2016
While we were confident in the design of SQL Server 2012, several customers reported to us performance problems that did not appear to be with disk subsystems, CPU, or networks. Our design needed to scale and be adaptable to the modern hardware on the market. First, we looked at the overall architecture of the replica design.

Some of the built-in features ( wal_compression ) have been there since 2016, and almost all backup tools do the WAL compression before taking it to the backup repository. Attempts to compress PostgreSQL WAL at different levels have always been around since the beginning. But this comes with a considerable performance implication.

As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs. For example, an area where Apple is absolutely killing it is in mobile CPU design.

Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. Deciding what benchmark to use for a performance budget is crucial. Simulated packet loss and variable latency, however, can make benchmarking extremely difficult and slow. The true median device from 2016 sold at about ~$200 unlocked. Global Ground-Truth.
