2017 Benchmarking Latency 
The Netflix TechBlog

Using this approach, we observed latencies ranging from 1 to 10 seconds, averaging 7.4 This file was introduced in this commit in 2017, with the purpose of improving the performance of user programs that determine aggregate memory statistics. The input to stdin is sent to the backend (i.e., We then exported the .har

If we had an ID for each streaming session then distributed tracing could easily reconstruct session failure by providing service topology, retry and error tags, and latency measurements for all service calls. Using simple lookup indices in Cassandra gives us the ability to maintain acceptable read latencies while doing heavy writes.

TL;DR: A lot has changed since 2017 when we last estimated a global baseline resource per-page resource budget of 130-170KiB. To update our global baseline from 2017, we want to update our priors on a few dimensions: The evolved device landscape. The Moto G4 , for example. Here begins our 2021 adventure. Hard Reset.

Back in 2017 the engineering team at Facebook had a problem. The initial version of Delos went into production after eight months using a ZooKeeper-backed Loglet implementation, and then four months later it was swapped out for a new custom-built NativeLoglet that gave a 10x improvement in end-to-end latency. Every little helps!

A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. I love short benchmarks like this as I can disassemble the resulting binary and ensure that the compiled instructions match my expectations, and the compiler hasen't messed with it. ## 6. include <sys/time.h>

— Alex Russell (@slightlylate) October 4, 2017. Budgets are scaled to a benchmark network & device. Deciding what benchmark to use for a performance budget is crucial. It simulates a link with a 400ms RTT and 400-600Kbps of throughput (plus latency variability and simulated packet loss). Global Ground-Truth.

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. WebGL 2 launched for other platforms on Chrome and Firefox in 2017.
