UNDERSTANDING REACT SERVER COMPONENTS
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
React Server Components (RSCs) come with the "double data problem," where the same data is sent as both HTML and a "payload" (serialized React Element tree), potentially increasing bandwidth usage. RSCs use techniques like streaming and React's `Suspense` to optimize performance, but careful consideration of component placement (client vs. server) is necessary to avoid issues.
