Does it change meaningfully under load? As long as the API p50 / p95 latencies are what you expect, the HTML generation / rendering is rarely a problem.

- csours 6y agoYou can't know until you test.
- safog 6y agoThat's a bit handwavey. Experience plays a part here and I've at least never seen a scaling issue where the root cause is not some form of API latency. Most of the raw HTML generation, rendering is done by frameworks and browsers respectively and they're pretty standard / efficient pieces of software.
