www.ibtimes.com speed test — 20 Oct 2026

What these numbers mean

• The server answered in 184 ms, which is fast: almost all of the wait is the page itself, not the host.
• The page transfers 437.6 KB over 26 request(s). Images files are 90% of it, so resize and recompress the largest images before anything else.
• The HTML itself arrives br-compressed.
• It runs over HTTP/3, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
• 90% of the weight comes from other hosts (analytics, fonts, embeds), which also means their slow day becomes your slow day.
• The largest element painted at 600 ms, inside the 2.5 s Google calls good.
• The main thread was blocked for 139 ms in total, which is not enough to feel.

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

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.
