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.

Requestssends more requests than 100% of 4,999 pages tested here26 against a median of 26

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 server answered in 158 ms, which is fast: almost all of the wait is the page itself, not the host.
  • The page transfers 1.23 MB over 26 request(s). Javascript files are 72% 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.
  • 96% 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 556 ms, inside the 2.5 s Google calls good.
  • Layout stayed still (CLS 0.008), so nothing jumps under the reader's cursor.
  • The main thread was blocked for 177 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.

Top issues

Total page weight

medium impact

The page transfers 1.23 MB across 26 request(s), with the document itself at 54.6 KB.

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

Third-party weight

medium impact

8 third-party host(s) serve 1.17 MB 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: widget.js (269.6 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.

Strict-Transport-Security

low impact

HSTS is not set, so the first visit on a hostile network can still be downgraded to HTTP.

Fix: Send Strict-Transport-Security with a max-age of at least six months. Add includeSubDomains once every subdomain is HTTPS.

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
