# Performance optimization
|
||||
|
||||
Deep performance optimization based on Lighthouse performance audits. Focuses on loading speed, runtime efficiency, and resource optimization.
|
||||
|
||||
## How it works
|
||||
|
||||
1. Identify performance bottlenecks in code and assets
|
||||
2. Prioritize by impact on Core Web Vitals
|
||||
3. Provide specific optimizations with code examples
|
||||
4. Measure improvement with before/after metrics
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance budget
|
||||
|
||||
| Resource | Budget | Rationale |
|
||||
|----------|--------|-----------|
|
||||
| Total page weight | < 1.5 MB | 3G loads in ~4s |
|
||||
| JavaScript (compressed) | < 300 KB | Parsing + execution time |
|
||||
| CSS (compressed) | < 100 KB | Render blocking |
|
||||
| Images (above-fold) | < 500 KB | LCP impact |
|
||||
| Fonts | < 100 KB | FOIT/FOUT prevention |
|
||||
| Third-party | < 200 KB | Uncontrolled latency |
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical rendering path
|
||||
|
||||
### Server response
|
||||
* **TTFB < 800ms.** Time to First Byte should be fast. Use CDN, caching, and efficient backends.
|
||||
* **Enable compression.** Gzip or Brotli for text assets. Brotli preferred (15-20% smaller).
|
||||
* **HTTP/2 or HTTP/3.** Multiplexing reduces connection overhead.
|
||||
* **Edge caching.** Cache HTML at CDN edge when possible.
|
||||
|
||||
### Resource loading
|
||||
|
||||
**Preconnect to required origins:**
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com">
|
||||
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://cdn.example.com" crossorigin>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Preload critical resources:**
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- LCP image -->
|
||||
<link rel="preload" href="/hero.webp" as="image" fetchpriority="high">
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Critical font -->
|
||||
<link rel="preload" href="/font.woff2" as="font" type="font/woff2" crossorigin>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Defer non-critical CSS:**
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- Critical CSS inlined -->
|
||||
<style>/* Above-fold styles */</style>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Non-critical CSS -->
|
||||
<link rel="preload" href="/styles.css" as="style" onload="this.onload=null;this.rel='stylesheet'">
|
||||
<noscript><link rel="stylesheet" href="/styles.css"></noscript>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### JavaScript optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**Defer non-essential scripts:**
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- Parser-blocking (avoid) -->
|
||||
<script src="/critical.js"></script>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Deferred (preferred) -->
|
||||
<script defer src="/app.js"></script>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Async (for independent scripts) -->
|
||||
<script async src="/analytics.js"></script>
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Module (deferred by default) -->
|
||||
<script type="module" src="/app.mjs"></script>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Code splitting patterns:**
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Route-based splitting
|
||||
const Dashboard = lazy(() => import('./Dashboard'));
|
||||
|
||||
// Component-based splitting
|
||||
const HeavyChart = lazy(() => import('./HeavyChart'));
|
||||
|
||||
// Feature-based splitting
|
||||
if (user.isPremium) {
|
||||
const PremiumFeatures = await import('./PremiumFeatures');
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Tree shaking best practices:**
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ Imports entire library
|
||||
import _ from 'lodash';
|
||||
_.debounce(fn, 300);
|
||||
|
||||
// ✅ Imports only what's needed
|
||||
import debounce from 'lodash/debounce';
|
||||
debounce(fn, 300);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Image optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Format selection
|
||||
| Format | Use case | Browser support |
|
||||
|--------|----------|-----------------|
|
||||
| AVIF | Photos, best compression | 92%+ |
|
||||
| WebP | Photos, good fallback | 97%+ |
|
||||
| PNG | Graphics with transparency | Universal |
|
||||
| SVG | Icons, logos, illustrations | Universal |
|
||||
|
||||
### Responsive images
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<picture>
|
||||
<!-- AVIF for modern browsers -->
|
||||
<source
|
||||
type="image/avif"
|
||||
srcset="hero-400.avif 400w,
|
||||
hero-800.avif 800w,
|
||||
hero-1200.avif 1200w"
|
||||
sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 50vw">
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- WebP fallback -->
|
||||
<source
|
||||
type="image/webp"
|
||||
srcset="hero-400.webp 400w,
|
||||
hero-800.webp 800w,
|
||||
hero-1200.webp 1200w"
|
||||
sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 50vw">
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- JPEG fallback -->
|
||||
<img
|
||||
src="hero-800.jpg"
|
||||
srcset="hero-400.jpg 400w,
|
||||
hero-800.jpg 800w,
|
||||
hero-1200.jpg 1200w"
|
||||
sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 50vw"
|
||||
width="1200"
|
||||
height="600"
|
||||
alt="Hero image"
|
||||
loading="lazy"
|
||||
decoding="async">
|
||||
</picture>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### LCP image priority
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- Above-fold LCP image: eager loading, high priority -->
|
||||
<img
|
||||
src="hero.webp"
|
||||
fetchpriority="high"
|
||||
loading="eager"
|
||||
decoding="sync"
|
||||
alt="Hero">
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- Below-fold images: lazy loading -->
|
||||
<img
|
||||
src="product.webp"
|
||||
loading="lazy"
|
||||
decoding="async"
|
||||
alt="Product">
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Font optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Loading strategy
|
||||
```css
|
||||
/* System font stack as fallback */
|
||||
body {
|
||||
font-family: 'Custom Font', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont,
|
||||
'Segoe UI', Roboto, sans-serif;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
/* Prevent invisible text */
|
||||
@font-face {
|
||||
font-family: 'Custom Font';
|
||||
src: url('/fonts/custom.woff2') format('woff2');
|
||||
font-display: swap; /* or optional for non-critical */
|
||||
font-weight: 400;
|
||||
font-style: normal;
|
||||
unicode-range: U+0000-00FF; /* Subset to Latin */
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Preloading critical fonts
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<link rel="preload" href="/fonts/heading.woff2" as="font" type="font/woff2" crossorigin>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Variable fonts
|
||||
```css
|
||||
/* One file instead of multiple weights */
|
||||
@font-face {
|
||||
font-family: 'Inter';
|
||||
src: url('/fonts/Inter-Variable.woff2') format('woff2-variations');
|
||||
font-weight: 100 900;
|
||||
font-display: swap;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Caching strategy
|
||||
|
||||
### Cache-Control headers
|
||||
```
|
||||
# HTML (short or no cache)
|
||||
Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate
|
||||
|
||||
# Static assets with hash (immutable)
|
||||
Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable
|
||||
|
||||
# Static assets without hash
|
||||
Cache-Control: public, max-age=86400, stale-while-revalidate=604800
|
||||
|
||||
# API responses
|
||||
Cache-Control: private, max-age=0, must-revalidate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Service worker caching
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Cache-first for static assets
|
||||
self.addEventListener('fetch', (event) => {
|
||||
if (event.request.destination === 'image' ||
|
||||
event.request.destination === 'style' ||
|
||||
event.request.destination === 'script') {
|
||||
event.respondWith(
|
||||
caches.match(event.request).then((cached) => {
|
||||
return cached || fetch(event.request).then((response) => {
|
||||
const clone = response.clone();
|
||||
caches.open('static-v1').then((cache) => cache.put(event.request, clone));
|
||||
return response;
|
||||
});
|
||||
})
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Runtime performance
|
||||
|
||||
### Avoid layout thrashing
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ Forces multiple reflows
|
||||
elements.forEach(el => {
|
||||
const height = el.offsetHeight; // Read
|
||||
el.style.height = height + 10 + 'px'; // Write
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// ✅ Batch reads, then batch writes
|
||||
const heights = elements.map(el => el.offsetHeight); // All reads
|
||||
elements.forEach((el, i) => {
|
||||
el.style.height = heights[i] + 10 + 'px'; // All writes
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Debounce expensive operations
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
function debounce(fn, delay) {
|
||||
let timeout;
|
||||
return (...args) => {
|
||||
clearTimeout(timeout);
|
||||
timeout = setTimeout(() => fn(...args), delay);
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Debounce scroll/resize handlers
|
||||
window.addEventListener('scroll', debounce(handleScroll, 100));
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Use requestAnimationFrame
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ May cause jank
|
||||
setInterval(animate, 16);
|
||||
|
||||
// ✅ Synced with display refresh
|
||||
function animate() {
|
||||
// Animation logic
|
||||
requestAnimationFrame(animate);
|
||||
}
|
||||
requestAnimationFrame(animate);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Virtualize long lists
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// For lists > 100 items, render only visible items
|
||||
// Use libraries like react-window, vue-virtual-scroller, or native CSS:
|
||||
.virtual-list {
|
||||
content-visibility: auto;
|
||||
contain-intrinsic-size: 0 50px; /* Estimated item height */
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Third-party scripts
|
||||
|
||||
### Load strategies
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ Blocks main thread
|
||||
<script src="https://analytics.example.com/script.js"></script>
|
||||
|
||||
// ✅ Async loading
|
||||
<script async src="https://analytics.example.com/script.js"></script>
|
||||
|
||||
// ✅ Delay until interaction
|
||||
<script>
|
||||
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
|
||||
const observer = new IntersectionObserver((entries) => {
|
||||
if (entries[0].isIntersecting) {
|
||||
const script = document.createElement('script');
|
||||
script.src = 'https://widget.example.com/embed.js';
|
||||
document.body.appendChild(script);
|
||||
observer.disconnect();
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
observer.observe(document.querySelector('#widget-container'));
|
||||
});
|
||||
</script>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Facade pattern
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- Show static placeholder until interaction -->
|
||||
<div class="youtube-facade"
|
||||
data-video-id="abc123"
|
||||
onclick="loadYouTube(this)">
|
||||
<img src="/thumbnails/abc123.jpg" alt="Video title">
|
||||
<button aria-label="Play video">▶</button>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
