Where the first byte went

  • DNS lookup 101 ms 40%
  • TCP connect 32 ms 13%
  • Server wait 117 ms 47%

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 250 ms. That is workable, and the cheapest win left is caching or a warmer connection.
  • The page transfers 437.9 KB over 14 request(s), which is lean. Fonts files are 49% of it, so subset the fonts and stop preloading the weights you do not render.
  • 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 732 ms, inside the 2.5 s Google calls good.
  • The main thread was blocked for 284 ms, so taps and scrolling wait while scripts run.

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.

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
