Performance budget checker

Check a HAR file, Lighthouse report or resource timing export against a performance budget. Each size, request count and timing gets a pass or fail with the amount over budget.

Up to 2,000,000 characters for the measured export and 100,000 characters for the budget. Processing runs locally in a background worker in your browser. Downloads: a JSON report, a CSV and a Markdown table. Export a HAR from the browser network panel, or save a Lighthouse report as JSON. Up to 2,000,000 characters. Review the settings before running.

Useful next steps

Budget format

Budgets follow the Lighthouse budget.json format: resourceSizes in KiB, resourceCounts in requests and timings in milliseconds, with an optional path pattern. When several budgets match the page path, the last one is used, as in Lighthouse.

How resources are classified

Each request is classified by its MIME type, then by its initiator type, then by its file extension into document, script, stylesheet, image, media, font or other. A request is third-party when its host does not match the first-party hosts you list, or the host of the first request when you list none.

Sizes and timings

Transfer size uses the HAR _transferSize value, or body plus header size when that is missing. Decoded size uses the content size. HAR timings cover load and dom-content-loaded. Lighthouse reports supply their own resource summary and metric values.
