 architecture
26. It’s easy to feel 
 like the only way 
 to make things better 
 is to start over.
28. a single, central source of state
31. 40 arguments
33. 2 arguments shared models
34. guardrails
38. crafting our deployment a new understanding of performance
41. Easy Math T = time S = payload size W = bandwidth (bytes/s) S = 78K W = 1500K/s T = S / W = 52ms
42. But latency … Data must travel from client to server and back.
43. Latency T = time S = payload size W = bandwidth (bytes/s) P = one-way transmission time (ping) S = 78K W = 1500K/s P = 75ms T = (2 * P) + S / W = 202ms
44. But TCP setup … One round trip for the server and client to say hello.
45. TCP Setup T = time S = payload size W = bandwidth (bytes/s) P = one-way transmission time (ping) RTT = round-trip time (2 * P) S = 78K W = 1500K/s P = 75ms RTT = 2 * P = 150ms T = (2 * RTT) + S / W = 352ms
46. But TCP slow start … A server starts by sending only a few packets of data, increasing the “congestion window” as packets are acknowledged.
47. TCP Setup T = time S = payload size W = bandwidth (bytes/s) P = one-way transmission time (ping) RTT = round-trip time (2 * P) C = congestion window (bytes) R = number of round trips S = 78K W = 1500K/s P = 75ms C = 14.6K RTT = 2 * P = 150ms R = ceil( log_2( (S / C) + 1) ) = 3 T = ( RTT * (1 + R) ) + S / W = 652ms - excludes DNS lookup for initial request to a host - assumes instantaneous server response, no packet loss, 
 and lots of other things
48. Easy Math T = time S = payload size W = bandwidth (bytes/s) S = 78K W = 1500K/s T = S / W = 52ms
49. Reality T = time S = payload size W = bandwidth (bytes/s) P = one-way transmission time (ping) RTT = round-trip time (2 * P) C = congestion window (bytes) R = number of round trips S = 78K W = 1500K/s P = 75ms C = 15K RTT = 2 * P = 150ms R = ceil( log_2( (S / C) + 1) ) = 3 T = ( RTT * (1 + R) ) + S / W = 652ms - excludes DNS lookup for initial request to a host - assumes instantaneous server response
52. 14.6K 43.8K 102.2K
53. 1K T = time S = payload size W = bandwidth (bytes/s) P = one-way transmission time (ping) RTT = round-trip time (2 * P) C = congestion window (bytes) R = number of round trips 1K file size 75ms ping 15K congestion window 1500K/s bandwidth RTT = 150 R = 1 T = ( 150 * (1 + R) ) + 1 = 301ms
54. 43.8K Maximum file size to ensure only 2 round trips on a new connection.
55. 14.6K Maximum file size to ensure only 1 round trip 
 on a new connection.
56. which workflows matter most? where are the bytes coming from? how can we hold the line after improving?
58. Framework or no, 
 JS growth & complexity 
 is unbounded 
 without constraints.
59. Education is 
 a powerful enabler 
 of improvement.
60. It’s unrealistic for you […] 
 to learn a framework 
 that solves a problem 
 you’ve never experienced.

61. Every technology decision is eventually regrettable.
62. Building 
 for the web
 is better today.
