Using server-sent events

Why and how?

  • Documentation: https://web.dev/articles/eventsource-basics
  • Use case: broadcasting data from server to browsers
  • Benefits:
    • Easy to understand and implement (only a few lines of code)
    • No library is needed
  • Can use same HTTP(S) authentication as elsewhere in the app (which can’t be done with websockets)

Latency numbers every programmer should know

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs
