Performance budgets help you ship faster. They link user experience to hard numbers.
Why use a budget?
- Align product goals with engineering.
- Catch speed drops before users notice.
- Make priorities clear for your team.
What to measure? Pick metrics reflecting real user experience.
- Time to Interactive (TTI).
- Total Blocking Time (TBT).
- JavaScript bundle size.
- Use p95 targets for real world data.
How to implement it?
- Use the browser Performance API for data.
- Store budget limits in a JSON file in your repo.
- Run automated checks in your CI pipeline.
- Fail the build if the app exceeds the limit.
Keep it simple.
- Set one hard cap.
- Set two soft targets.
- Simulate slow networks to see real impact.
Fixing violations:
- Split large JavaScript bundles.
- Lazy load non-critical code.
- Optimize images with AVIF or WebP.
Track everything on a dashboard. Spot trends. Run a post-mortem when limits break. This keeps your app fast.
