Fast Software, the Best Software (2019)
It’s my observation that only developers really notice or care about speed. As long as something is “fast enough” (and the benchmark here is pretty low), most people won’t specifically choose a fast app over a slow app with more features.<p>This means that sometimes we put too much emphasis on speed. But it is not as important to everyone else as it is to us. A product with the defining feature “it is fast”, usually fails to get noticed except by other developers.
