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.

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 269 ms. That is workable, and the cheapest win left is caching or a warmer connection.
  • The page transfers 114.4 KB over 22 request(s). Javascript files are 82% 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/2, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
  • The largest element took 5.44 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 0.001), so nothing jumps under the reader's cursor.

Fix first: Compress text responses - 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.

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.

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.

Top issues

Compress text responses

high impact

1 text response(s) of 10 KB or more are sent uncompressed, and the document itself is not compressed. That is 85.5 KB 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.

Render-blocking resources

high impact

10 render-blocking resource(s) in the document head (4 script(s), 6 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.

Cache static assets

medium impact

4 asset(s) answer without a Cache-Control max-age, so browsers revalidate them on every visit.

Fix: Version filenames on change and serve them with a long max-age plus immutable. That is what makes a returning visitor fast.

Mobile viewport

medium impact

No viewport meta tag, so a phone renders the desktop layout scaled down.

Fix: Add a viewport meta tag with width=device-width and an initial scale of 1.

Strict-Transport-Security

low impact

HSTS is not set, so the first visit on a hostile network can still be downgraded to HTTP.

Fix: Send Strict-Transport-Security with a max-age of at least six months. Add includeSubDomains once every subdomain is HTTPS.

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
