samsaccone··on Netflix: Removing client-side React.js improved performance by 50%
Hi could you post some before and after traces (chrome dev tools recordings) of the site. Performance is nuanced, and the original tweet only helps to put down others (the react team) unfairly.

I think the win here is less about react and more about not running as much javascript on the client. I hypothesize that the traces will show this, but it is impossible to know for sure without them :)

Thanks in advance!

As far as precedence goes ... This is not an uncommon pattern

Mocha uses mocha to test https://github.com/visionmedia/mocha/blob/master/test/http.m...
