www.calm.com speed test — 20 Oct 2026
Measured from the wfix.shop server on 20 October 2026 at 15:47 UTC. Grade D (63/100), with the screenshots, the timings and the fixes that matter.
Where the first byte went
- DNS lookup 66 ms 7%
- TCP connect 34 ms 4%
- Server wait 827 ms 89%
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.
How this page compares
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 took 928 ms. Everything else waits for that number, so the server is where to start: caching, a slow query, or an overloaded host.
- The page transfers 2.19 MB over 26 request(s). Javascript files are 71% of it, so defer what is not needed for the first screen, and drop tags nobody uses.
- The HTML itself arrives gzip-compressed.
- It runs over HTTP/3, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
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.

What the page looks like
Loaded in headless Chromium on this server. Click an image to open it full size.
Browser render
The same URL loaded in a real browser, so these are the readings curl cannot produce. The grade above is still built from the server measurements.
Page weight by type
What the page is made of
Transfer size, compressed as sent. 26 request(s) in total, 2.19 MB across all of them.
Top issues
Server response time (TTFB)
high impactThe first byte arrived after 928 ms. Of that, 827 ms was the server thinking and 100 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.
Compress text responses
high impact8 text response(s) of 10 KB or more are sent uncompressed, and the document itself is not compressed. That is 1.31 MB of compressible text.
Fix: Turn on brotli (preferred) or gzip for text/css, javascript and text/html in the web server. This is the cheapest win available on almost any site.
Image delivery and format
high impact2 image(s) over 200 KB and 0 large image(s) still served as JPEG or PNG.
Fix: Serve WebP or AVIF with a JPEG fallback, size images to the space they occupy, and lazy-load anything below the fold. Images are usually more than half of a slow page.
Total page weight
high impactThe page transfers 2.19 MB across 26 request(s), with the document itself at 127.6 KB.
Fix: Work through the heaviest assets first: images, then fonts, then third-party scripts.
HTML document size
medium impactThe document transfers 127.6 KB. A bloated document delays every other request, because nothing else can start until it is parsed.
Fix: Paginate long listings, move repeated markup into a template, and stop inlining large data URIs into the HTML.
Waterfall
Slowest requests
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
