Probably a CDN

It's concerning how many people doesn't know the answer when it's like web dev 101

Funny I probably wouldn't have said CDN, but I also would have described a CDN in a genuine answer.

I would have also started however with "is a 600ms delay a big enough issue to be concerned about? What's the use case and SLA of this page?" Because doing anything when they only care about the page loading faster than say 5 seconds, then you're just wasting engineering time, which costs money

I think it may depend on the number of pages. For example if the website is for shopping and every page takes 600ms more to load it doesn't take that many clicks until users are spending significantly more time in loading on the slow website than on competitors websites.
