Where the first byte went

  • DNS lookup 41 ms 11%

  • Server wait 299 ms 80%

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 373 ms. That is workable, and the cheapest win left is caching or a warmer connection.
  • The page transfers 822.8 KB over 20 request(s). Javascript files are 93% of it, so defer what is not needed for the first screen, and drop tags nobody uses.
  • The HTML itself arrives br-compressed.
  • It runs over HTTP/3, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
  • 98% 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 1.40 s, inside the 2.5 s Google calls good.
  • Layout shift is 0.340 (good is under 0.1): something without a reserved size is loading late - an image, an ad, or a font swap.
  • The main thread was blocked for 211 ms, so taps and scrolling wait while scripts run.

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

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

Cache static assets

medium impact

2 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 impact

2 third-party host(s) serve 805.2 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.

JavaScript weight

medium impact

1 JavaScript file(s) over 200 KB: _app-da76ba2e64aaf7ef.js (482.8 KB)

Fix: Split routes, remove unused dependencies, and prefer a two-file build (one pinned library, one application bundle) over many small ones.

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.

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
