Shubhie Panicker: Measuring Real World Performance
Details
About this talk:
Measuring real world performance is necessary to understand the experience of real users -- on myriad different devices, network configurations, and cache conditions. While real world performance is what matters for web apps, there are limited APIs and tools for this and older metrics (eg. DOMContentLoaded, onLoad) don’t measure what actually matters. A number of new standardized APIs are now available to measure critical aspects of web performance, in a user-centric manner.
This talk will cover some of these new APIs, developed by Shubhie and her team, that have recently shipped in Chrome, such as Paint Timing and what’s next for loading performance; new features in Navigation Timing, and, finally, the new Device Memory header and API to enable apps to tailor content to the device constraints, as “one-size-fits-all” does not work in a world with widely varying device capabilities.
