Web Performance: Nice Display. Now Show Me the Data.
In: The Web| Web Performance| WebPerformance.Org| branding| reputation
16 Oct 2008Today’s Web interfaces are all about the Flash (literally). Smooth charting, cool effects, callouts to references — ways to try and simplify complex data collections.
Problem-solving and diagnosis requires a far deeper dive than the flashiest interface could ever provide, because it comes down to the numbers. The actual measurements that make up the flashy chart. [...]
David Cancel and I have had sort of a passing vague, same space and thought process, living in the same Metropolitan area kind of distant acquaintance for about the same year.
About 2-3 months ago, he wrote a pair of articles discussing the efforts he has undertaken in order to try and offload some of the [...]
When I re-introduced my five articles on Web Performance Concepts last night, I had forgotten than I had already written two additional articles in the series.
Web Performance, Part VI: Benchmarking Your Site
Web Performance, Part VII: Reliability and Consistency
Look for Parts VII and IX in the next few days.

mon.itor.us Outage
In: GrabPERF| Web Performance
5 Nov 2007mon.itor.us, a service which also provides free Web performance measurement services, appears to be having a wee problem.
The most recent GrabPERF data on this site is available here. The issue may be corrected by the time you look at the data.
I don’t wish suffering like this on anyone. GrabPERF had it’s own 3-4 day outage [...]

The best times on a business trip…
In: Life
3 Nov 2007Part of the problem with making a lot of East to West trips across the US is that the flights back are a nightmare for timing. You either lose most of a day or have to take a red-eye.
Well, taking the red-eye has only one advantage: you get to camp in the airline lounge and [...]
GrabPERF Return to Service
In: GrabPERF
20 Sep 2007GrabPERF returned to service at approximately 17:30 GMT (13:30 EDT — 10:30 PDT) September 20 2007. The database server was on all night, but an esoteric choice of primary interfaces (i.e. the least obvious one!) meant that it was taking to empty space.
Have fun and enjoy the data!

In: GrabPERF
19 Sep 2007GrabPERF has been offline all day, and will likely be offline for the remainder of the day as Technorati relocates the servers to their new datacenter.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Web Performance Concepts Series – Revisited
In: Commentary| Web Performance| WebPerformance.Org| Work
31 Aug 2008Two years ago I created a series of five blog articles, aimed at both business and technical readers, with the goal of explaining the basic statistical concepts and methods I use when analyzing Web performance data in my role as a Web performance consultant.
Most of these ideas were core to my thinking when I developed [...]
