Before we dive in, I’d just like to note that the authors responsibly disclosed their findings to Google, who have announced that they will be fixing many of the identified issues in AndroidQ. Google, to their credit, have announced that they are addressing many of the issues that we reported to them. xamdeco0962.

For example, users can install browser plugins to suggest coupon codes when they are shopping, to scan web pages for malware, to play games or message friends, or do any number of other things. The most popular, by far, is the Google Lighthouse report (available in Chrome Developer Tools) and Google’s Page Speed Insights.

Still, it leads to a larger file size, which we try to avoid in cases where quality is not a game changer for the project’s value proposition. Cache Your Images. A website’s performance can suffer if frequently accessed images are not cached, as many requests will be made to images that have already been loaded in the user’s system.

PWAs don’t require installation from the App Store or Google Play to the device to be used (like native apps do). You need a site for that.

However, many other devices are sitting between the client and the server that also have their own TCP code on board (examples include firewalls, load balancers, routers, caching servers, proxies, etc.). While the first Google-specific versions of QUIC used a custom set-up for this, standardized QUIC uses the existing TLS 1.3

In recent years GPU development that was originally funded by the gaming market (and ended up being used as a supercomputer accelerator) has been dominated by use in the AI/ML accelerator market. It’s not a cache coherent memory protocol like CXL, and it’s optimized to run over a shorter distance, mostly within a single chassis.

It’s widely accepted that self-hosted fonts are the fastest option: same origin means reduced network negotiation, predictable URLs mean we can preload , self-hosted means we can set our own cache-control. That said, the convenience of a service like Google Fonts cannot be overstated. What else could I do to make Google Fonts fast ?

Some examples of the latter are heavily cached websites, as well as single-page apps that periodically fetch small updates via APIs and other protocols such as DNS-over-QUIC. Initial tests by Google , for example, show low percentage improvements for its use cases. This is why there is a split between client and server CIDs in QUIC.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. The fastest Androids predictably remain 18-24 months behind, owing to cheapskate choices about cache sizing by Qualcomm, Samsung Semi, and all the rest. The Moto G4 , for example.

The idea is quite straightforward: Push the minimal code needed to get interactive for the initial route to render quickly, then use service worker for caching and pre-caching resources and then lazy-load routes that you need, asynchronously.

Before that, he spent several years working at Google on Chrome, web standards, and much more. And this strategy logic plays out in Android-land, where there are huge teams at Google that have no higher goal than to get folks that are happy making web apps to put something native in the Play Store instead.
