I wish I had a clearer memory or record of this, but I think I’ve also ~100ms for browser cache retrieval on an SSD. Has anyone else observed this and have an explanation? A sibling comment points out that SSD read latency should be ~10ms at most so the limitation must be in the software?
OP mentioned specifically that “there have been bugs in Chromium with request prioritisation, where cached resources were delayed while the browser fetched higher priority requests over the network” and that “Chrome actively throttles requests, including those to cached resources, to reduce I/O contention”. I wonder if there are also other limitations with how browsers retrieve from cache.
