Where the first byte went

  • TCP connect 77 ms 16%
  • Server wait 265 ms 57%

Measured on the connection that fetched the HTML. Every other request on the page waits for the end of this bar before it can start.

Requestssends more requests than 100% of 4,999 pages tested here26 against a median of 26

Every report published here is in this comparison, so it is a reference population of pages tested from one server - not a benchmark of the whole web.

What these numbers mean

  • The first byte arrived in 469 ms. That is workable, and the cheapest win left is caching or a warmer connection.
  • The page transfers 1.52 MB over 26 request(s). Javascript files are 99% of it, so defer what is not needed for the first screen, and drop tags nobody uses.
  • The HTML itself arrives br-compressed.
  • It runs over HTTP/3, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
  • 99% of the weight comes from other hosts (analytics, fonts, embeds), which also means their slow day becomes your slow day.
  • The largest element took 3.73 s to paint, past the 2.5 s threshold: usually a hero image that is too big or a render-blocking script in front of it.
  • Layout stayed still (CLS 0.004), so nothing jumps under the reader's cursor.
  • The main thread was blocked for 972 ms, so taps and scrolling wait while scripts run.

Fix first: Server response time (TTFB) - Cut server think time: page cache, query indexes, fewer synchronous calls to third parties inside the request. Connection setup is distance, so a nearer region or a CDN edge helps instead.

Read on one shared server, not a visitor's phone: use it to compare pages against each other, not as a promise about every connection. We fix what these tests find.

Page weight by type

What the page is made of

Javascript 25 requests
1.50 MB 99%

Transfer size, compressed as sent. 26 request(s) in total, 1.52 MB across all of them.

Top issues

Server response time (TTFB)

high impact

The first byte arrived after 469 ms. Of that, 265 ms was the server thinking and 204 ms was connection setup. A first byte under 400 ms is what a visitor feels as instant.

Fix: Cut server think time: page cache, query indexes, fewer synchronous calls to third parties inside the request. Connection setup is distance, so a nearer region or a CDN edge helps instead.

Render-blocking resources

high impact

31 render-blocking resource(s) in the document head (6 script(s), 25 stylesheet(s)). The page cannot paint until each one arrives.

Fix: Add defer or async to scripts that do not change the first paint, inline the critical CSS, and load the rest with media="print" plus an onload swap.

Total page weight

medium impact

The page transfers 1.52 MB across 26 request(s), with the document itself at 17.9 KB.

Fix: Work through the heaviest assets first: images, then fonts, then third-party scripts.

Third-party weight

medium impact

2 third-party host(s) serve 1.50 MB of this page. Each one is another DNS lookup, TLS handshake and point of failure you do not control.

Fix: Self-host the libraries you can, drop the tags you cannot justify, and preconnect the ones you keep.

JavaScript weight

medium impact

1 JavaScript file(s) over 200 KB: c2842bfcd97e55a576b1e191a6db391103a029714ef58c8932cd301be2bede05-WebBlox.js (478.4 KB)

Fix: Split routes, remove unused dependencies, and prefer a two-file build (one pinned library, one application bundle) over many small ones.

Each bar is one request's own response time, scaled to the slowest. Assets were fetched in parallel, so the bars overlap in real time rather than stacking. first party third party
