Saving 15 USD on 10k+ USD MMR is ridiculous.

Saving 15 USD on 0 USD MMR while still building the business is priceless. Virtually infinite runway.

Given how much revenue depends on the experience of a web app and loading times, I’d be happy to pay 100$ a month on that revenue if I don’t have to sacrifice a second of additional loading time no matter how clever I was optimizing it.

  • That 1 second of loading time probably has more to do with heavy frontends and third-party scripts, than the backend server's capacity.

    $100 is peanuts to most businesses, of course. But even so, I'd rather spend it on fixing an actual bottleneck.

  • Not all businesses depend on milliseconds being shaved off the loading times

    For example: Ticketmaster makes a ton of money and their site is complete dogshit.
