The data seems to indicate otherwise: https://www.gigaspaces.com/blog/amazon-found-every-100ms-of-...

> A 2017 Akamai study shows that every 100-millisecond delay in website load time can hurt conversion rates by 7%

> 10 years ago, Amazon found that every 100ms of latency cost them 1% in sales

With SSG and to a lesser extend SSR, React has close to zero impact on the initial page load. It’s all just HTML.

Would be fun to see that revisited.

Also misleading to imply a linear relationship. There will be a marginal cost, but no reason to assume constant.

That study doesn't prove anything.

You're not amazon

That said, having a performant website is nice, both for developer experience and for users.

I have to say I pick solid because it's so damn fast (okok, and because it has an API which is React-like but without the crap doesn't make sense or an extra custom runtime just because)
