Above the Fold Content

1.6 s

The largest item on a page, which is often above-the-fold content like hero images, banners, and so on, should load and display as quickly as possible to reduce wait time and energy use.

Speed Index

2.5 s

In addition to using more energy, people abandon pages that don’t load quickly. Ideally, a page should load in under two seconds to provide an optimal experience. This is especially crucial for people in low-bandwidth areas and those with older devices.

Total Blocking Time

11 ms

This metric provides the total amount of time that a page is blocked from responding to user input, such as mouse clicks, screen taps, or keyboard presses. Shorter total blocking times are ideal.
