Sorry I wasn’t clear about that.

The article is using some very heavy constraints on networking and hardware based on a global, mobile audience.

My constraints do not take that into account. But they would only add a max of 200ms on top of that minimum the article is talking about.

Not anything near ~4 secs. 4 secs to do anything on a web app is malpractice.
