Abstract:
You have optimized your web servers to be super fast, you have tweaked the DB to squeeze the best performance out of the hardware, the payload sent to the browser is as optimized as possible. Do you know if you are delivering a good experience to your customers? How do you know if a developer's change will undo some of your optimization? We will explain how at Salesforce.com we use a simple piece of JavaScript in the browser to monitor and make sure that the UI is incredibly fast and alert us when it is not.
