Latency vs. Bandwidth impact on Page Load Time

“To speed up the Internet at large, we should look for more ways to bring down RTT. What if we could reduce cross-atlantic RTTs from 150 ms to 100 ms? This would have a larger effect on the speed of the internet than increasing a user’s bandwidth from 3.9 Mbps to 10 Mbps or even 1 Gbps.” - Mike Belshe

Single digit % perf improvement after

5 Mbps

Linear improvement in page load time!
