Some Performance Blog Posts I’ve Bookmarked and Read Lately

Back/forward cache — I always assumed browsers just do fancy stuff with the back/forward buttons and us developers had very little control. Philip Walton tells us it’s critical that we understand “what makes pages eligible (and ineligible) for bfcache to

SkyBridge’s Bitcoin Cache Rises to $310M
4.1.2021
SkyBridge's bitcoin investment has already climbed to more than $300 million, mostly due to price appreciation in the past couple of months
Firefox 85 nabídne cache partitioning. Web bude pomalejší, ale bezpečnější
24.12.2020
V lednu dorazí Firefox 85 a jednou z jeho citelnějších bezpečnostních novinek bude izolovaná cache – tzv. storage partitioning. Technologii už v různé míře používají také Safari a Chrome.
Oč se jedná? Když dnes ve Firefoxu načtete web X a poté web Y, mohou sdílet stejný webový obsah, který se

Measuring Core Web Vitals with Sentry
17.11.2020
Chris made a few notes about Core Web Vitals the other day, explaining why measuring these performance metrics are so gosh darn important:
I still think the Google-devised Core Web Vitals are smart. When I first got into caring about performance, it was all: reduce requests! cache things! Make...
Core Web Vital Tooling
26.10.2020
I still think the Google-devised Core Web Vitals are smart. When I first got into caring about performance, it was all: reduce requests! cache things! Make stuff smaller! And while those are all very related to web performance, they are abstractly related. Actual web performance to users are things...
A Primer on the Different Types of Browser Storage
21.10.2020
In back-end development, storage is a common part of the job. Application data is stored in databases, files in object storage, transient data in caches… there are seemingly endless possibilities for storing any sort of data. But data storage isn’t limited only to the back end. The front end (the...
Netlify Does Cache Invalidation For You
15.7.2020
This is one of my favorite Netlify features. Say you’re working on a site and you change as asset like a CSS, JavaScript, or image file. Ya know, like do our job. On Netlify, you don’t have to think about how that’s going to play out with deployment, browsers, and cache. Netlify...
FuzeDrive: 1,6TB SSD s extrémní výdrží může sloužit i jako chytrá cache pro pevný disk
3.7.2020
Vývoj SSD a NAND flash čipů se ubral takovým směrem, že sice rychle klesá cena za kapacitu, ale to platí hlavně u stále méně odolných konstrukcí, které používají více bitů na buňku. Bohužel to s sebou přináší problém, že tyto čipy mají nižší výdrž. I když se trend v tomto směru zlepšuje, stále
Smaller HTML Payloads with Service Workers
31.1.2020
Short story: Philip Walton has a clever idea for using service workers to cache the top and bottom of HTML files, reducing a lot of network weight.
Longer thoughts: When you're building a really simple website, you can get away with literally writing raw HTML. It doesn't take long to need a...
“Browser Functions”
26.1.2020
Serverless functions are fairly straightforward. Put a bit of back-end language code, like Node, in the cloud and communicate with it via URL. But what if that URL didn't run a back-end language, it ran an actual browser? Richard Young:
We can now do full stack development using just Web APIs....

Going Buildless
27.8.2019
I'm in a long distance relationship. That means I’m on a plane to England every few weeks, and every time I'm on that plane, I think about how nice it would be to read some Reddit posts. What I could do is find a Reddit app that lets me cache posts for offline (I’m sure there is one out there),...
Quick Gulp Cache Busting
7.8.2019
You should for sure be setting far-out cache headers on your assets like CSS and JavaScript (and images and fonts and whatever else). That tells the browser "hang on to this file basically forever." That way, when navigating from page to page on a site — or revisiting it, or refreshing...
then on Objects
5.8.2019
Promises were a revelation in JavaScript development, allowing us to enjoy async processing and avoid callback hell. Many new APIs like Battery API, Cache API, and others use the promise API. One fact you may not know is that you can add a then method to any object to make it Promise-like!...
Inline SVG… Cached
12.4.2019
I wrote that using inline <svg> icons makes for the best icon system. I still think that's true. It's the easiest possible way to drop an icon onto a page. No network request, perfectly styleable.
But inlining code has some drawbacks, one of which is that it doesn't take advantage...
Write Your First Service Worker in 5 Minutes
18.3.2019
What is a service worker? A service worker is a little file that will allow you to cache files and other assets on a user’s machine. How is this different from server-side caching? Because the assets are stored on a user’s machine, rather than a server, there is no need to go across...

WDRL — Edition 260: Company Culture, Cache Control, Encryption By Developers And Tracking Focused Elements.
6.3.2019
Hey,
Let’s think about our own take on how we do work today. If we receive a task to do, are we asking for more details, are we figuring out how to do it ourselves or just following the task’s details. If we do only the latter, this of course will get it done. But it’ll also increase the risk...
