"There were number rounding issues in the original numbers for the 1k component case - Turbopack's 15ms was rounded down to 0.01s while Vite's 87ms was rounded up to 0.09s. This further got marketed as a 10x advantage when the original numbers were close to 6x."
- EastSmith 4y agoWhat an actual marketing BS is this?
- Jasper_ 4y agoSigfig manipulation is one of the oldest tricks in the "lying with numbers" book. It's usually a very stupid idea because most laymen can see the swindle once pointed out, let alone engineers (Vercel's target market). No clue who signed off on this marketing but they just outed themselves as untrustworthy to a whole segment now. What a stupid move...

- KingOfCoders 4y agoNo.
- endorphine 4y agoThat's not the point though. Read the sibling comments.
- Kiro 4y agoWhat is the point?
- endorphine 4y agoTo me the whole point of this discussion is shedding light on the misleading marketing they did, which seems disrespectful to developers reading the original announcement.
- boxed 4y agoAfaik it's unfinished too. So it's really irrelevant if it's faster.
- cechmaster 4y agodepends on how many components. it's 10x somewhere on the graph, just not where they said it was.
