Critical Rendering Path

The process of rendering pixels

using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

why wait on styles you don`t need?

How do I load styles that I need but don't matter?

<link href="print.css" rel="stylesheet" media="print" onload="this.media='all'">
<link rel="preload" href="style.css" as="style" onload="this.rel='stylesheet'">
<link rel="alternate stylesheet" href="style.css" onload="this.rel='stylesheet'">

What is best practice?

Critical CSS

Put CSS in the document head

Let the browser load resources as early as possible

Avoid CSS imports

RAIL

a user-centric performance model

Response
Animation
Idle
Load

Perception

how users perceive performance delays

16ms

Users perceive animations as smooth so long as 60 new frames are rendered every second.

100ms

Users feel like the result is immediate.

1s

Users lose focus on the task they are performing.

10s

users are frustrated and are likely to abandon tasks.

Any longer, and the connection between action and reaction is broken.

and

Time Slicing

Web Worker

const testWorker = new Worker('./worker.js')
setTimeout(_ => {
  testWorker.postMessage({})
  testWorker.onmessage = function (ev) {
    console.log(ev.data)
  }
}, 5000)

// worker.js
self.onmessage = function () {
  const start = performance.now()
  while (performance.now() - start < 1000) {}
  postMessage('done!')
}

function block () {
  ts(function* () {
    const start = performance.now()
    while (performance.now() - start < 1000) {
      console.log(11)
      yield
    }
    console.log('done!')
  })
}

setTimeout(block, 5000)

function ts (gen) {
  if (typeof gen === 'function') gen = gen()
  if (!gen || typeof gen.next !== 'function') return

  (function next () {
    const res = gen.next()
    if (res.done) return
    setTimeout(next)
  })()
}

Style & Layout

Optimizing Recalculate Style and Layout

The Cost of Styles Changes

Selector Matching

1

2

.box:nth-child(3)

.box--three

Roughly 50% of the time used to calculate the computed style for an element is used to match selectors

Optimizing Recalculate Style

  • Reduce the complexity of your selectors
  • Reduce the number of elements on which style calculation must be calculated

Optimizing Layout

Avoid Forced Synchronous Layouts

What is FSL

// Set the width.
el.style.width = '100px';

// Then ask for it.
const width = el.offsetWidth;
// Get the last known width.
const width = el.offsetWidth;

// Then update it.
el.style.width = '100px';
const container = document.querySelector('.container');
const boxes = document.querySelectorAll('p');

for (var i = 0; i < boxes.length; i++) {
    // Read a layout property
    const newWidth = container.offsetWidth;
    
    // Then invalidate layouts with writes.
    boxes[i].style.width = newWidth + 'px';
}

Demo

const container = document.querySelector('.container');
const boxes = document.querySelectorAll('p');

// Read a layout property
const newWidth = container.offsetWidth;

for (var i = 0; i < boxes.length; i++) {    
    // Then invalidate layouts with writes.
    boxes[i].style.width = newWidth + 'px';
}

Demo

Avoid layout thrashing

Paint & Composite

Demo

how to reduce the paint area?

will-change

or

transform: translateZ(0);

Demo

* {

    will-change: left;

    transform: translateZ(0);

}

Why?

Thank you!
