There’s more than a 10-second spread in response time between the blazing fast Google News and the bottom of the Keynote News Index. A host of factors impact the page-load times for these complex home pages, including video streams, CDN-delivered content, ads, and other third-party content. Measuring component performance is key to understanding and correcting speed-robbing content.
