How will it affect page ranking?

According to Google’s Zhiheng Wang and Doantam Phan wrote:
“The “Speed Update,” as we’re calling it, will only affect pages that deliver the slowest experience to users and will only affect a small percentage of queries. It applies the same standard to all pages, regardless of the technology used to build the page. The intent of the search query is still a very strong signal, so a slow page may still rank highly if it has great, relevant content.”
Google Algorithm Update:-
Google’s search algorithm and webmaster practices are the subjects of constant rumours, news, and evaluation.
