Differences among Enter,F5 and Ctrl+F5 in webpage refresh
When we press Enter, F5 or Ctrl+F5 to refresh a webpage, is there any difference among them? Actually it's yes, we can find the difference from the request header and response header information. There are two cases about pressing Enter in the address bar. First if the page requested is cached and not expired in the browser, we can find the header information sent by the browser is : Host 192.168.3.174:8080 User-Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:5.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/5.0 Accept ...
Circumventing browser connection limits for fun and profit
A few days ago, this video hosted by metacafe popped up on digg, explaining how to increase site download times by tweaking your browser settings to increase connection parallelism. To explain why this works, let’s step back a bit to discuss how browsers manage server connections. In building any application, developers are often required to make ‘utilitarian’ choices. Pretentiously paraphrasing Jeremy Bentham, ‘utilitarian’ describes an approach that â...

The basics of Client/Server socket programming
While Client/Server communication model is ubiquitous nowadays, most of them involve socket programming knowledge. In this post, I will introduce some rudimentary aspects of it: (1) Short/Long-lived TCP connection.Short-lived TCP connection refers to following pattern: Client creates a connection to server; send message, then close the connection. If Client wants to transmit information again, repeat the above steps. Because establishing and destroying TCP s...
Tips for improving PHP efficiency
0. Using single quote to replace double quote to enclose string literal, this will be a bit faster. Because PHP engine will search variables in double quoted string. 1. If a method in class can be declared as static, then make it static, this will be 4 times faster. 2. $row["id"] is 7 times faster than $row[id] 3. echo is faster than print, and you should use multiple parameters instead of string concatenation, i.e use comma(,) instead of dot(.) to concatenate string. For example echo $str1,$str...

Easy Parallel Processing in PHP
The proliferation of multicore CPUs and the inability of our learned CPU vendors to squeeze many more GHz into their designs means that often the only way to get additional performance is by writing clever parallel software. One problem we were having is that some of our batch processing jobs were taking too long to run. In order to speed the processing, we tried to split the processing file into half, and let a separate PHP process run each job. Given that we were using a dual core serv...

Some thoughts about microservice adoption
Nowadays microservice is very popular among companies with the increasing complexity of systems. The goal is to make each microservice to handle one specific job and handle it well. This normally would provide the benefit of maintaining the service easily and isolating errors and making the service more reliable and scalable. The benefits of adopting microservice are obvious. Maintainability. Decouple functions so that each function can be maintained separately which reduces the risk of issue ...

IE ActiveX(â€htmlfileâ€) Transport, Part II
In my last post I discussed using the ActiveX(â€htmlfileâ€) technique to provide a usable streaming transport in Internet Explorer. The solution I provided will work, but since writing the last article I’ve made significant progress in understanding why IE behaves the way it does with respect to the streaming transport. The previous solution amounted to creating an array of messages, pushing messages on that array from the htmlfile iframe, and popping messages off of the array i...

Should All Web Traffic Be Encrypted?
The prevalence of free, open WiFi has made it rather easy for a WiFi eavesdropper to steal your identity cookie for the websites you visit while you're connected to that WiFi access point. This is something I talked about in Breaking the Web's Cookie Jar. It's difficult to fix without making major changes to the web's infrastructure. In the year since I wrote that, a number of major websites have "solved" the WiFi eavesdropping problem by either making encrypted HTTPS web traffic an accou...
