Everyone loves fast sites. While "make your site faster" is a simple mantra, the actual steps to achieve this can be daunting. Fortunately, we know where to start: JavaScript. JavaScript consumes more CPU than loading, layout, and rendering combined. Byte-for-byte, JavaScript inflicts more delays on sites than any other resource, and yet the amount of JavaScript on sites continues to grow.
In this session you'll learn the latest techniques for measuring and improving the impact JavaScript on your site, including: using the User Timing Spec and Long Tasks API to track the CPU cost of JavaScript for real users, moving expensive JavaScript off the main thread, using code coverage tools to reduce your JavaScript, and understanding why defer is probably a better technique than async for loading JavaScript.
Raiders of the Fast Start: Frontend Performance Archaeology - Performance.now...Katie Sylor-Miller
Raiders of the Fast Start: Frontend Performance Archeology
There are a lot of books, articles, and online tutorials out there with fantastic advice on how to make your websites performant. It all seems easy in theory, but applying best practices to real-world code is anything but straightforward. Diagnosing and fixing frontend performance issues on a large legacy codebase is like being an archaeologist excavating the remains of a lost civilization. You don’t know what you will find until you start digging!
Pick up your trowels and come along with Etsy’s Frontend Systems team as we become archaeologists digging into frontend performance on our large, legacy mobile codebase. I’ll share real-life lessons you can use to guide your own excavations into legacy code:
What tools and metrics we used to diagnose issues and track progress.
How we went beyond server-driven best practices to focus on the client.
Which fixes successfully increased conversion, and which didn’t.
Our work, like all good archaeology, went beyond artifacts and unearthed new insights into our culture. We at Etsy pride ourselves on our culture of performance, but, like all cultures, it needs to adapt and reinvent itself to account for changes to the landscape. Based on what we’ve learned, we are making the case for a new, organization-wide, frontend-focused performance culture that will solve the problems we face today.
How I learned to stop worrying and love UX metricsTammy Everts
This talk at the 2018 performance.now() conference (Amsterdam) walks through a brief history of UX and web performance research, highlighting landmark studies that helped connect the dots between performance and user experience. I also demystify the current state of performance metrics and help you understand what you need to focus on for your site and your users.
Happy Browser, Happy User! NY Web Performance Meetup 9/20/19Katie Sylor-Miller
xPerformance is fundamentally, a UX concern. Sites that are slow to render or janky to interact with are a bad user experience. We strive to write performant code for our users, but users don’t directly interact with our code - it all happens through the medium of the browser.
The browser is the middleman between us and our users; therefore to make our users happy, we first have to make the browser happy. But how exactly do we do that?
In this talk, we’ll learn how browsers work under the hood: how they request, construct, and render a website. At each step along the way, we’ll cover what we can do as developers to make the browser’s job easier, and why those best practices work. You’ll leave with a solid understanding of how to write code that works *with* the browser, not against it, and ultimately improves your users’ experience.

Measuring Web Performance (HighEdWeb FL Edition)Dave Olsen
Today, a web page can be delivered to desktop computers, televisions, or handheld devices like tablets or phones. While a technique like responsive design helps ensure that our web sites look good across that spectrum of devices we may forget that we need to make sure that our web sites also perform well across that same spectrum. More and more of our users are shifting their Internet usage to these more varied platforms and connection speeds with some moving entirely to mobile Internet.
In this session we’ll look at the tools that can help you understand, measure and improve the web performance of your web sites and applications. The talk will also discuss how new server-side techniques might help us optimize our front-end performance. Finally, since the best way to test is to have devices in your hand, we’ll discuss some tips for getting your hands on them cheaply.
This presentation builds upon Dave’s “Optimization for Mobile” chapter in Smashing Magazine’s “The Mobile Book.”

According to HTTPArchive.org the average web page is now larger than the original DOOM installation application. Today's obese web is leading to decreased user satisfaction, customer engagement and increased cost of ownership. Research repeatedly tells us customers want faster user experiences. Search engines reward faster sites with better rankings. Small, fast sites are cheaper to develop, maintain and operate.
- Why has the web become obese?
- What actions can developers and stakeholders do to combat their morbid obesity?
- Are these actions expensive or hard to implement?
This session reviews what customers want and how to identify your web site's love handles. More importantly you will learn simple techniques to eliminate the fat and create a healthy, maintainable, affordable web development lifestyle that produces the user experiences your customers want to engage with over and over.
SearchLove San Diego 2018 | Tom Anthony | An Introduction to HTTP/2 & Service...Distilled
HTTP/2 and Service Works are becoming more established, yet the SEO community lacks awareness of what they are what they may mean for us. A lot of us know we need to know about them but we manage to keep putting it off. However, for both of these technologies, the next 12 months are going to be the turning point where we really can't avoid learning more about them. Tom will provide and accessible introduction to both, with a focus on what they are, how they work and what SEOs need to know. If you have been scared of jumping in to them until now, this session will help get you up to speed.

2021 Chrome Dev Summit: Web Performance 101Tammy Everts
What do we mean when we talk about "web performance"? Why should you care about it? How can measure it? How do you get other people in your organization to care? In this workshop at the 2021 Chrome Dev Summit, I covered these questions – including an overview of the history of performance metrics, up to Core Web Vitals.
In this presentation, I have shown how a webpage is loaded on your viewport after you request for the same. The process is simple. Once you click on the URL, the browser makes a request to the webserver. The request is processed by the webserver.
Web server files the response to the request and sends it to the browser. The requested page is sent to the web browser. The browser then loads and renders the page content. The requested page is then shown on the viewport.

Demystifying web performance tooling and metricsAnna Migas
Web performance has been one of the most talked about web development topics in the recent years. Yet if you try to start your journey with the speed optimisations, you might find yourself in a pickle. With the tooling, you might feel overwhelmed—it looks complex and hard to comprehend. With the metrics: at first glance all of them seem similar, not to mention that they change over time and you cannot figure out which of them to take into account.
Secret Web Performance Metric - DevDayBeAnna Migas
After working for over a year on a project directed towards emerging markets (namely Nigeria and Kenya), I came to realise that the popular web performance metrics are all centred around a specific type of person: someone who is used to the fast and reliable connection. In my talk I want to share my experience on how to look at the overall web performance with the new metric in mind - user’s patience. I have a set of tips and tricks how to prepare for the scenario where the loading time is going to be an issue.
Web performance optimisations for the harsh conditions.pdfAnna Migas
Small web performance tweaks and optimisations might not make a difference for some of the users: there can be physical barriers that will make it impossible to achieve the fast page load and the smooth browsing. After working for over a year on a project directed towards emerging markets (namely Nigeria and Kenya), I came to realise that the popular web performance metrics are all centred around a specific type of person: someone who is used to the fast and reliable connection. But when the conditions are not ideal on daily basis, what are our choices? In my talk we will chat about the improvements that will have real impact on the user experience for users browsing the web in the harsh conditions. I will also share details about the background of users in Africa and how their perception might differ from the users we typically develop for.
Secret performance metric - Modern FrontendsAnna Migas
During this talk, she will give an insight on her work with the app that is dedicated towards the users who are working with it in not-so-ideal conditions with an unreliable connection and how to guide them through this experience. We will chat about the cases when web performance metrics as we know it will not be applicable and what can we do to ensure the user will be able to successfully navigate the app using the well designed information and some performance tricks. She will also share details about the background of users in Africa and how their perception might differ from the users we typically develop for—since these are the fastest growing markets, it is possible that the audience will stumble upon these issues sooner than later.

Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks

9. Optimise Critical Rendering Path
Use progress bars instead of spinners
Have a placeholder content
Start upload before user even
decides to click the upload button
18. Agenda
1. Why sometimes interactions feel slow
2. Browser rendering and frames
3. Types of triggered changes in the UI
4. How to test for interaction performance
5. Potentially dangerous user interface patterns
39. What creates new layers?
1. 3D or perspective transforms
2. Animated 2D transforms or opacity
3. Being on top/a child of a compositing layer
4. Accelerated CSS filters
5. In special cases <video>, <canvas>, plugins
6. will-change CSS property
63. Animations
1. Don’t overuse animations
2. Animate only transform and opacity if possible
3. Use requestAnimationFrame() but…
4. …for 120fps avoid requestAnimationFrame()
5. Don’t animate elements below other nodes (like
fixed headers)
6. Don’t animate too many elements
66. Parallax effect
1. Causes Paint Storms
2. Almost always bad
3. Don’t use scroll events
4. Don’t use background-position
5. Use 3D transforms and perspective if you need
to: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/
2016/12/performant-parallaxing
69. Fixed elements
1. Repaints with every frame when scrolling
2. Use will-change property (or transform:
translate3D(0,0,0)) to avoid repainting
.fixed-element {
position: fixed;
will-change: transform;
}
71. Scrolling events
1. Don’t attach wheel or touch listeners to the whole
document, use smaller areas instead
2. Take advantage of passive event listeners (use
with polyfill):
window.addEventListener("scroll", func, {passive: true});
74. Hover effects
1. If they are bound to happen often—you might
consider using will-change property
2. Can be deadly if there are too many and can be
easily triggered
3. Avoid effects triggering Layout or Paint:

77. Appending elements
1. Make sure not many elements will be affected
2. Try to separate the area (will-change, contain:
layout)
3. Try not to change the size of area (for example
use overflow property)
82. Images: downloads
• Semantics = performance
• How image is embedded (img tag/background-
image) influences the time of download
• Comprehensive research by Harry Roberts
87. Images: content jumps
• No jumps in Chrome any more (scroll anchoring
enabled by default in Chrome 56)
• Can be avoided by using a placeholder content eg.
created with the intristic ratio:
(img-height / img-width) * 100%
.container {
padding-bottom: $intristic-ratio;
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
90. Images: lazy loading
• There are situations when it can make the
experience worse because of reflows
• https://jobs.zalando.com/tech/blog/loading-
time-matters/index.html
• Placeholders can be a solution (eg. Low Quality
Placeholders)
91. Takeaways
1. Jank happens when the browser doesn’t finish
rendering a frame on time
2. Try to offload and optimise the main thread
3. Avoid content Reflows and Repaints
4. Don’t overuse layers
5. Test your website with Performance, Layers and
Rendering tabs
6. Use responsibly potentially dangerous UI patterns
