Render-blocking requests
1.4 s1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 1.4 s.
Main-thread work: 4.9 s
A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,048 HTML elements
The page has 3,048 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (chilipiper.com, Google Tag Manager and website-files.com and others), adding 4.2 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 MBAbout 1.4 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Mobile performance score: 79
79/100Your mobile performance score is 79. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
chilipiper.com adds 346 ms
346 mschilipiper.com costs a phone 346 ms of main-thread work and 2.3 MB 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
441 KiB26 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (441 KiB).
Google Tag Manager adds 301 ms
301 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 301 ms of main-thread work and 688 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.
website-files.com adds 193 ms
193 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 193 ms of main-thread work and 638 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.
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 234 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
120 KiBAbout 120 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Improve image delivery
57 KiB3 images could be 57 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
43 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 43 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.
