Plain summary
- X says its new web app is much faster than the old one. The new app is already applied to pages served to logged-out users and to pages that search engines crawl, and logged-in users are being moved over country by country in sequence.
- According to a blog post by X senior engineer Yagiz Nizipli, when opening an X.com profile on a slow connection, the old app took more than 22 seconds before the first post appeared, while the new app takes 2.7 seconds. This is the company's claim, and the measurement conditions are not described in detail in the original.
- The new structure merges three servers that had been run separately for users, search engine crawlers, and link previews into one. Security researcher Jane Manchun Wong, after accessing the new app, described it as fast and polished, but this is a personal impression, not a measured value.
Editorial opinion
O: This may be useful for a scene where someone opens an X post without logging in, or enters from search results, and wants to see whether profile loading feels slow.
X: The claim that it is 22 seconds versus 2.7 seconds comes from X's own blog, and the original does not include the measurement conditions or independent verification, so it needs to be checked before being taken at face value.
