So many articles and books that talk about application performance quote 200 ms as an example of acceptable response time.

I am curious how this 200 ms arrived at? Why is it not 100 ms or 300 ms? What is the rationale behind 200 ms? Is it driven by current capabilities and constraints of hardware/network etc?

  • IOW: 200ms is just another example of people having low standards wrt. responsiveness. Ideally, aim for a single frame delay. – Veedrac Apr 12 '20 at 18:53
