I know what you want to say (and I agree), but... website rendering depends on the network mostly, 16ms latency is already the top 0.5% of fiber users and you have to add that on top of every new connection... GPU rendering happens on a bus that is thousands of times faster, and it needs to cover a minuscule distance.
You can't really compare the two.
- christophilus 4y agoAgreed. Why is it taking my garden hose so long to fill my swimming pool when tsunamis can do it in a matter of milliseconds? Differences in order of magnitude. That said, websites and even web apps really should be faster.
- zbrozek 4y agoI have 1 ms latency to 1.1.1.1 and a 10 gbps connection - faster than a SATA SSD - and most websites are still slow.
