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 597 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 1.80 MB over 26 request(s). Images files are 93% 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.
The largest element painted at 1.61 s, inside the 2.5 s Google calls good.
The main thread was blocked for 284 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.

Top issues

Server response time (TTFB)

high impact

The first byte arrived after 597 ms. Of that, 513 ms was the server thinking and 84 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.

Image delivery and format

high impact

2 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 impact

The page transfers 1.80 MB across 26 request(s), with the document itself at 127.0 KB.

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

HTML document size

medium impact

The document transfers 127.0 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.

Avoid extra redirects

medium impact

1 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.
