www.practo.com speed test — 20 Oct 2026
Measured from the wfix.shop server on 20 October 2026 at 15:03 UTC. Grade B (89/100), with the screenshots, the timings and the fixes that matter.
Where the first byte went
- DNS lookup 82 ms 27%
- TCP connect 36 ms 12%
- Server wait 184 ms 61%
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 arrived in 302 ms. That is workable, and the cheapest win left is caching or a warmer connection.
- The page transfers 1.08 MB over 26 request(s). Other files are 33% of it, so that one type is worth a look on its own.
- The HTML itself arrives br-compressed.
- It runs over HTTP/3, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
- 91% of the weight comes from other hosts (analytics, fonts, embeds), which also means their slow day becomes your slow day.
- The main thread was blocked for 67 ms in total, which is not enough to feel.
Fix first: Total page weight - Work through the heaviest assets first: images, then fonts, then third-party scripts.
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, 1.08 MB across all of them.
Top issues
Total page weight
medium impactThe page transfers 1.08 MB across 26 request(s), with the document itself at 18.2 KB.
Fix: Work through the heaviest assets first: images, then fonts, then third-party scripts.
Cache static assets
medium impact1 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.
Third-party weight
medium impact3 third-party host(s) serve 997.3 KB 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.
Avoid extra redirects
medium impact1 redirect hop(s) before the page load started, each one a full round trip before the first byte.
Fix: Link to the canonical URL (and make sure http, the apex domain and www all point at it) so no visitor pays a redirect first.
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
