Google with an initiative to stimulate the increase in the speed of loading sites on the Web, for which it plans to include special indicators in Chrome that highlight very slow or, conversely, very fast loading sites. Finally, the ways to indicate fast and slow sites have not yet been determined, and the best option for users will be selected in the course of several experiments.
For example, if a site typically loads slowly due to inefficient settings or loading problems, you might see a flag that the site normally loads slowly during the opening process or while waiting for content to appear. The notification will allow the user to understand that the delay for the site being opened is in the order of things, and not due to some single failure. For well-optimized and usually very fast opening sites, it is proposed to highlight the progress bar in green. The possibility of providing information about the speed of loading pages that have not yet been opened is also being considered, for example, by displaying an indicator in the context menu for links.
The indicators will not reflect the download speed in a particular situation, but the summary indicators characteristic of the site being opened. The goal is to highlight poorly designed sites that load slowly not because of coincidence, but because of poor organization. At the first stage, the marking criterion will be the presence of constant loading delays observed when analyzing the history of working with the site. In the future, it will be possible to identify specific slowdown situations that manifest themselves on certain types of devices or network configurations. In the long term, it is planned to take into account other performance indicators that affect the comfort of working with the site, not tied to download speed.
Website developers are encouraged to use available tools to optimize loading speed, such as ΠΈ . These tools allow you to analyze various aspects of loading a web page, evaluate resource consumption and identify resource-intensive JavaScript operations that block output generation, and then develop recommendations for speeding up and optimizing.
