Heatmap of how often each pixel changed while the page loaded

The whole recording in one image: every pixel is tinted by how often it changed. Amber changed once, deep red changed ten or more times. The scale is fixed, so heatmaps from different runs compare directly.

Flat amber is a page that painted once and stayed put. Red speckle in the shape of the text means the same pixels repainted over and over, usually invisible rendering noise that inflates Last Visual Change and Speed Index. A solid red block is a genuinely restless area, like an ad or a carousel.

Why was rendering delayed?

Rendering was not meaningfully delayed. First paint landed at 896 ms on a 403 ms first byte; the 2 render-blocking requests were done by 716 ms and the remaining ~180 ms is style and layout work (28 ms of it measured style recalculation).

Style recalculation

measured by Chrome during this run

Style the browser had to recalculate before it could paint: many elements or a lot of time spent here points at expensive CSS on the critical rendering path. The recalculation count and the largest single one tell the two problems apart: one massive style change touching most of the page (few recalculations, the largest close to the total) needs different medicine than thousands of tiny ones (many recalculations, each tiny).

Style recalculation is not holding up your paint. 28 ms of restyling before the page painted, 3.1 % of the time to First Contentful Paint. Nothing here needs attention.

Before first & largest contentful paint (same paint, 896 ms)

Recalculations7
Elements1100
Total time27.953 ms
Largest recalculation1036 elements · 26.487 ms

The recalculation work before first paint is 3.1 % of the time to First Contentful Paint.

Render blocking requests

3 requests · 59.0 KB

Blocking requests delay both paints: the browser renders nothing until they arrive, so they push First Contentful Paint and everything after it, including the largest paint (LCP). Requests that block the parser inside the body stall everything after them in the document. Load JavaScript with defer or async, and keep non-critical CSS off the critical path with media attributes. Bars show when each request loaded on a clock that runs to the last paint; the gap after the bars is style and layout work.

Style invalidations

Why the browser had to recalculate style and layout: every DOM/style change invalidates some set of nodes, and the same class or attribute churning over and over is the pattern to hunt. Counts, not milliseconds: the time is in the style recalculation numbers above.

Most of this is the page being built. Only 146 style recalculations and 120 layout invalidations happened after first paint; the rest is the first render. Not much to chase here.

The page ships 10 images (out of 10) in JPEG/PNG/GIF without a modern alternative. Wrap them in a <picture> with a <source type="image/avif"> or "image/webp" before the legacy <img>, or serve modern formats from your image pipeline directly. AVIF and WebP usually deliver 25–50% smaller files at the same quality.

AVIF and WebP routinely deliver 25–50% smaller files than JPEG and PNG at the same perceived quality, and every browser version still under support understands at least one of them. Ship modern formats either through a <picture> element with <source type="image/avif"> / "image/webp" entries in front of the legacy <img>, or directly from a content-negotiating image pipeline that returns AVIF / WebP when the client accepts it. https://web.dev/articles/serve-images-webp

The page has 12 requests that are missing a cache time. Configure a cache time so the browser doesn't need to download them every time. It will save 25.3 kB the next access.

The easiest way to make your page fast is to avoid doing requests to the server. Setting a cache header on your server response will tell the browser that it doesn't need to download the asset again during the configured cache time! Always try to set a cache time if the content doesn't change for every request.

warn(29)Lazy-load below-the-fold imageslazyLoadingImages

The page has 5 below-the-fold images without loading="lazy". Add loading="lazy" so the browser defers downloading and decoding them until the user scrolls them into view.

Adding loading="lazy" to an <img> tells the browser not to download or decode it until it is close to the viewport. For images that the user may never see (deep in the page, behind a tab, in a footer carousel), this saves bandwidth and main-thread time during initial render. The LCP image and any image in the initial viewport should NOT be lazy-loaded — that delays the first paint. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/img#loading

warn(80)Don't use private headers on static contentprivateAssets

The page has 3 requests with private headers. The main page has a private header. It could be right in some cases where the user can be logged in and served specific content. But if your asset is static it should never be private. Make sure that the assets really should be private and only used by one user. Otherwise, make it cacheable for everyone.

If you set private headers on content, that means that the content are specific for that user. Static content should be able to be cached and used by everyone. Avoid setting the cache header to private.

warn(90)Don't scale images in the browseravoidScalingImages

The page has 1 image that are scaled more than 100 pixels. It would be better if those images are sent so the browser don't need to scale them.

It's easy to scale images in the browser and make sure they look good in different devices, however that is bad for performance! Scaling images in the browser takes extra CPU time and will hurt performance on mobile. And the user will download extra kilobytes (sometimes megabytes) of data that could be avoided. Don't do that, make sure you create multiple version of the same image server-side and serve the appropriate one.

infoLong cache headers is goodcacheHeadersLong

The page has 10 requests that have a shorter cache time than one year (but still a cache time).

Setting a cache header is good. Setting a long cache header (a year) is even better because the asset will stay in the browser cache across visits. For content-hashed URLs (e.g. app.4af2.css) you can safely use Cache-Control: max-age=31536000, immutable. For unversioned URLs that may change, use a revalidating strategy instead.

warn(95)Inline CSS for faster first renderinlineCss

The page has both inline CSS and CSS requests even though it uses a HTTP/2-ish connection. If you have many users on slow connections, it can be better to only inline the CSS. Run your own tests and check the waterfall graph to see what happens.

In the early days of the Internet, inlining CSS was one of the ugliest things you can do. That has changed if you want your page to start rendering fast for your user. Always inline the critical CSS when you use HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 (avoid doing CSS requests that block rendering) and lazy load and cache the rest of the CSS. It is a little more complicated when using HTTP/2. Does your server support HTTP push? Then maybe that can help. Do you have a lot of users on a slow connection and are serving large chunks of HTML? Then it could be better to use the inline technique, becasue some servers always prioritize HTML content over CSS so the user needs to download the HTML first, before the CSS is downloaded.

warn(99)Avoid slowing down the critical rendering pathavoidRenderBlocking

The page has 2 blocking requests and 0 in body parser blocking (0 JavaScript and 2 CSS). There are 1 potentially render blocking requests. You need to verify if it is render blocking: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/load.php?lang=en&modules=startup&only=scripts&raw=1&skin=vector-2022

The critical rendering path is what the browser needs to do to start rendering the page. Every file requested inside of the head element will postpone the rendering of the page, because the browser need to do the request. Avoid loading JavaScript synchronously inside of the head (you should not need JavaScript to render the page), request files from the same domain as the main document (to avoid DNS lookups) and inline CSS for really fast rendering and a short rendering path.

The viewport meta tag does not contain width=device-width, the browser may use a desktop-width fallback.

The viewport meta tag tells the browser how to lay out the page on small screens. Without it (or without width=device-width) the page is rendered at a desktop fallback width and scaled down, which makes text unreadable on mobile. Disabling zoom (user-scalable=no, maximum-scale<=1) is also an accessibility regression. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Viewport_meta_tag

The policy allows 'unsafe-inline', which lets the browser execute inline scripts and styles directly from the page. Move to nonces or hashes plus 'strict-dynamic' so that inline injection cannot run. The policy allows 'unsafe-eval', which lets the page call eval() and Function(). Almost no application needs this; remove it.

A Content-Security-Policy response header tells the browser which sources of script, style, and other content are allowed. The most effective form is a strict CSP using nonces or hashes together with strict-dynamic; the worst is a missing header, with unsafe-inline and unsafe-eval close behind. https://web.dev/articles/strict-csp

Long Animation Frames

A long animation frame (LOAF) is a frame that took ≥ 50 ms from input to the next paint. The part beyond the threshold is blocking time, the number that hurts Interaction to Next Paint and Total Blocking Time. Break long tasks up (scheduler.yield(), smaller chunks) or move the work off the main thread. Read more about the Long Animation Frames API.

A frame's blocking time is split between its scripts by their share of the frame's work, capped at each script's own run time — blocking from work no script owns (HTML parsing, browser internals) stays unattributed. The per-script blocking view below uses the same attribution.

Blocking time per script (browser-reported)

How much each script blocked the main thread, derived from the Long Animation Frame API. Each frame's blocking time is split between its scripts by their share of the frame's work, capped at each script's own run time — blocking from work no script owns (HTML parsing, browser internals) is not attributed (older data credits the script that started the frame). The closest answer to "which script should I fix to improve TBT" the platform exposes.

Blocking time per script (trace)

Total Blocking Time attributed per script from the Chrome trace: every main-thread task longer than 50 ms blocks input for the remainder, and each blocking task is credited to the script whose own code ran the longest during that task.

What do these categories mean?
Parsing HTML & CSSparseHTML
Reading the HTML and CSS and building the page structure. Grows with document size — a big server-rendered page costs more here.
Style & layoutstyleLayout
Working out which CSS rules apply and where every element goes on the page. Grows with DOM size and selector complexity.
Parsing & compiling JavaScriptscriptParseCompile
Parsing and compiling JavaScript before it can run — the cost of shipping bytes of JS, even unused ones.
Running JavaScriptscriptEvaluation
Running JavaScript: event handlers, timers, promise callbacks and script execution.
Paint & compositepaintCompositeRender
Painting pixels and assembling layers into the frames you see on screen.
Garbage collectiongarbageCollection
Reclaiming memory JavaScript no longer uses. A lot of it means allocation-heavy code.
Other browser work (scheduling)other
Chrome’s own task management: per-task overhead and thousands of sub-millisecond scheduler ticks — not page work you can attribute or optimize away. On this page 70 ms of it is this per-task bookkeeping (RunTask self time in the trace).

CPU time per script

Scripts by main-thread time

2 of 2 scripts

Slowest JS functions

The functions where main-thread JavaScript time was actually spent, sampled by Chrome's JavaScript profiler. Self time is spent in the function itself; total time includes the functions it called. For loader/dispatcher functions whose total dwarfs their self time, the runs line shows the top functions and modules (up to five, ≥ 1 ms) the total was actually spent running.

Timers

How much setTimeout/setInterval work the page runs, credited to the script that scheduled each timer. Many zero-delay timers mean work sliced into a machine-gun of tiny tasks; repeating timers are polling.

Zero-delay slicing: load.php[scripts:ext.centralNotice.choiceData] split work into 42 back-to-back tasks costing 35 ms. Consider batching the work or moving it to requestIdleCallback or a worker.
