About This Tool

This tool computes a performance budget based on target page load time and projected network conditions. It translates a desired Time to Interactive, resource count, and asset weight into a concrete budget (KB) and category targets.
Inputs reflect real world web assets: total page weight in KB, resource_count, average asset size, and available bandwidth. The tool evaluates best practices such as critical path optimization, image weight reduction, and caching strategy.
Outputs include recommended budgets, suggested optimizations, and a breakdown by category (images, scripts, styles). It highlights risk areas and provides guidance for prioritization across common stacks and hosting setups.
Audience includes frontend engineers, performance leads, and site reliability teams seeking repeatable budgets and decision support.

Run calculation to generate budgets and recommended optimizations.
Review category breakdown and suggested prioritizations.
Export results or copy to your documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What is a performance budget

A performance budget defines a maximum allowed weight for assets or a target page speed. It helps teams make tradeoffs explicit, prioritize optimizations, and maintain consistent performance targets across releases.

Which inputs affect results

Inputs include total page weight, number of resources, target time to interactive, bandwidth, and cache assumptions. These drive the total budget and the per category allocations used to guide optimization efforts.

What do I do with the outputs

Use the category budgets to prioritize optimizations, such as image compression or code splitting. The tool also suggests actions and an order of impact to achieve the target performance within the budget.

Can I simulate different network conditions

Yes. The tool allows adjustments for bandwidth and efficiency to compare budgets under slower or faster networks, enabling you to plan for diverse user experiences and devices.
