http://techcrunch.com/2011/09/01/eric-schmidt-steve-jobs-was-the-best-ceo-in-the-past-50-years/

there is a sentence below.

Steve Jobs gave the best performance by a CEO in 50 years, maybe 100 years.

Now I have a question.

What is the usage of "by" here?

Is "as" can replaced here?

紫外線は肌を傷めます。痛んだ肌は夜寝ている間に再生するといわれます。深夜1時かた5時にかけて成長ホルモンが分泌するそうです。だからこの時間は寝ていなければなりません。夜更かしはしないようにしましょう！
