Analysis of HTTP / 1 . 1 Performance on
نویسندگان
چکیده
We compare the performance of HTTP/1.0 and 1.1 on a high latency, low bandwidth wireless network. HTTP/1.0 is known to have low throughput and consume excessive network and server resources on today's graphics-intensive web pages. A high latency, low bandwidth network only magniies these problems. HTTP/1.1 was developed to remedy these problems. We show that on a Ricochet wireless network, HTTP/1.1 doubles throughput over HTTP/1.0 and decreases the number of packets sent by 60%.

Caching Doesn't Improve Mobile Web Performance (Much)
A recent NSDI paper [1] reported that increasing the cache hit ratio for an HTTP proxy from 22% to 32% improved median page load time (PLT) for mobile clients by less than 2%. We argue that there are two main causes for this weak improvement: objects on the critical path are often not cached, and the limited computational power of mobile devices causes computational delays to comprise a large p...
متن کاملDemystifying Mobile Web Browsing under Multiple Protocols
With the popularity of mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablets, users prefer visiting Web pages on mobile devices. Meanwhile, HTTP(S) plays as the major protocol to deliver Web contents, and has served the Web well for more than 15 years. However, as the Web pages grow increasingly complex to provide more content and functionality, the shortcomings and inflexibility of HTTP become more and...
متن کاملAnalysis of HTTP Performance
We discuss the performance effects of using per-transaction TCP connections for HTTP access, and the proposed optimizations of avoiding per-transaction re-connection and TCP slow-start restart overheads. We analyzed the performance penalties of the interaction of HTTP and TCP. Our observations indicate that the proposed optimizations do not affect Web access for the vast majority of users. Most...
متن کاملHTTP / 1 . 1 performance from an embedded perspective
This paper is an all-embracing introduction to HTTP performance, which encompasses all areas of importance concerning application layer performance. We highlight seven areas to consider before implementing HTTP/1.1 in an embedded web server, these were identified by a careful survey of previous research. The highlighted topics are the new request methods, persistent connections, chunked encodin...
متن کاملModeling HTTP/2 Speed from HTTP/1 Traces
With the standardization of HTTP/2, content providers want to understand the benefits and pitfalls of transitioning to the new standard. Using a large dataset of HTTP/1.1 resource timing data from production traffic on Akamai’s CDN, and a model of HTTP/2 behavior, we obtain the distribution of performance differences between the protocol versions for nearly 280,000 downloads. We find that HTTP/...
