www.lokmat.com speed test — 20 Oct 2026
Measured from the wfix.shop server on 20 October 2026 at 16:05 UTC. Grade A (93/100), with the screenshots, the timings and the fixes that matter.
Where the first byte went
- DNS lookup 86 ms 30%
- TCP connect 48 ms 17%
- Server wait 155 ms 54%
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 289 ms. That is workable, and the cheapest win left is caching or a warmer connection.
- The page transfers 370.2 KB over 11 request(s), which is lean. Fonts files are 66% of it, so subset the fonts and stop preloading the weights you do not render.
- The HTML itself arrives gzip-compressed.
- It runs over HTTP/3, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
- 26% 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 644 ms, inside the 2.5 s Google calls good.
- The main thread was blocked for 173 ms in total, which is not enough to feel.
Fix first: Serve everything over HTTPS - Redirect HTTP to HTTPS at the server, and rewrite the remaining http:// asset references so nothing depends on browser upgrading.
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.
Screenshot
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. 11 request(s) in total, 370.2 KB across all of them.
Top issues
Serve everything over HTTPS
high impact1 asset(s) are still requested over plain HTTP.
Fix: Redirect HTTP to HTTPS at the server, and rewrite the remaining http:// asset references so nothing depends on browser upgrading.
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.
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
