RTT is designed to replace Effective Connection Type (ECT) with higher resolution timing information. However, there are a handful of ways available to us—some are, admittedly, more easy and free than others. What follows is overall best-practice advice for designing with latency in mind. Where Does CrUX’s RTT Data Come From?

Because microprocessors are so fast, computer architecture design has evolved towards adding various levels of caching between compute units and the main memory, in order to hide the latency of bringing the bits to the brains. This avoids thrashing caches too much for B and evens out the pressure on the L3 caches of the machine.
