Compression Algorithm
Action
Main response served uncompressed
REVIEW
Main response served uncompressed
Info::
Main HTML response has no Content-Encoding (uncompressed)
The main HTML document is served without compression. The Text Compression section above lists the broader picture; for the main response specifically, even gzip would shave ~70-80% off most text payloads.

Server-Timing Observability
No Server-Timing header found
REVIEW
No Server-Timing header found
Info::
No Server-Timing header found
Server-Timing exposes backend timing breakdowns to browser DevTools (e.g., `db: 45ms; render: 120ms; cache: 2ms`). Useful for diagnosing slow pages without backend log access. Most modern frameworks (Next.js, Cloudflare Workers, Fastly) emit it automatically; absence on a managed platform usually means telemetry headers are stripped at the edge.

Server Response Intelligence
2 server-response signal(s) detected
PASS
2 server-response signal(s) detected
Info::
`Vary` header declared: accept-encoding
The page declares a `Vary` header, telling downstream caches which request headers the response varies on. Critical for content-negotiated responses (compression, language, cookies, device class).
Info::
No `ETag` or `Last-Modified` -- conditional GET not supported
Without either header, browsers can't issue conditional GETs and refresh always re-downloads the full response body even when nothing changed. Add `ETag: "<hash>"` (or `Last-Modified: <date>`) on cacheable responses; the server returns 304 Not Modified when the client's cached copy is still valid, saving bandwidth.

44% of JavaScript execution time comes from third-party scripts.

Why this matters

Third-party scripts (analytics, ads, social, A/B testing) often dominate execution time — every one is a perf-and-privacy tax.

Learn more

Each third-party script is a black box: you don't control when it loads, what it executes, or how much it grows. They often account for a major share of total blocking time on average sites (HTTP Archive's Web Almanac documents the trend). Audit which ones you actually need, defer the rest, and use facade patterns (lite-youtube, lite-vimeo) for embedded media.
