- Pages: Too Many Bytes :- bigger the page size, slow the response time is. Compare loading google and yahoo websites and measure the response time. Which home page takes longer time to load. yahoo home page is more than 159KB with lots of images and google home page is not more than 10KB.
- Slow Servers:- If the performance of any server is slow within the architecture of the application, that server becomes a bottleneck. And it leads to high response time. That means poor performance.
The standard guidelines for response times are:
- 0.1 second (one tenth of a second). Ideal response time. The user doesn't sense any interruption.
- 1 second. Highest acceptable response time. Download times above 1 second interrupt the user experience.
- 10 seconds. Unacceptable response time. The user experience is interrupted at an alarming high rate and the user is likely to leave the site or system.
These numbers are highly useful when planning server capacity.
