Interesting article covering the nitty gritty details of production deployments. I can’t help but think something is wrong with anonymous users though? Loading the site was noticeably slow in MEL despite a SYD deployment. Took ~8s to load the page on a fast home fibre connection, abnormally slow for local sites, typical for US-only deployments. I wonder if anonymous users are unnecessarily being given a session for tracking purposes, and that is causing the slowness. Cycling session IDs for authenticated users makes sense for the UX benefit of not having to log in again, but that speed issue is terrible for low intent anonymous users landing on the site for the first time.
