Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 982 KiB19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (982 KiB).
Main-thread work: 11.6 s
A phone's processor spends 11.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 31
31/100Your mobile performance score is 31. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
4,071 HTML elements
The page has 4,071 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 (roseperl.com, Kameleoon and Klaviyo and others), adding 37.8 MB and 1.5 s of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 108 ms
108 msShopify costs a phone 108 ms of main-thread work and 36.0 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.
Improve image delivery
500 ms · 888 KiB24 images could be 888 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 653 KiBAbout 653 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 119 KiBAbout 119 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
roseperl.com adds 547 ms
547 msroseperl.com costs a phone 547 ms of main-thread work and 692 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 537 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Kameleoon adds 311 ms
311 msKameleoon costs a phone 311 ms of main-thread work and 38 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.
Klaviyo adds 239 ms
239 msKlaviyo costs a phone 239 ms of main-thread work and 360 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.
LoyaltyLion adds 51 ms
51 msLoyaltyLion costs a phone 51 ms of main-thread work and 350 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.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
38 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 38 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.
