Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.5 s · 860 KiBAbout 860 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.5 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.0 s · 436 KiB7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (436 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
2.3 s59 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.3 s.
Mobile performance score: 47
47/100Your mobile performance score is 47. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.7 s
A phone's processor spends 4.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
750 ms · 828 KiB13 images could be 828 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Other Google APIs/SDKs and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 1.6 MB and 439 ms of main-thread time.
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 431 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 47 KiBAbout 47 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Google CDN adds 224 ms
224 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 224 ms of main-thread work and 699 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
1,896 HTML elements
The page has 1,896 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Other Google APIs/SDKs adds 104 ms
104 msOther Google APIs/SDKs costs a phone 104 ms of main-thread work and 598 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 24 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Core Web Vitals

Real-user TTFB: 1.5 s

Total Blocking Time: 495 ms
495 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 495 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
3 images without width and height
3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.5 MB in 203 requests
6.5 MBYour homepage downloads 6.5 MB in 203 requests on a phone: images 3.6 MB (65), scripts 1.7 MB (57) and fonts 886 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images far larger than shown
22 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example End-to-End-Data-Management-for-Media-Workflows-qk9quit9hkpd3 at 1,000 px wide, shown at 330 px. Resized copies would save about 22 KiB.
3 images in older formats
3 images (385 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit
1.83 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.83 g of CO₂e: 219.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 8 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

https://spectralogic.com/resources, https://spectralogic.com/videos, https://spectralogic.com/products/certified-blackpearl-clients and https://spectralogic.com/press-room have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
