Back during the offsite Joaquin got some numbers around article composition e.g. how much does just serving lead section reduce HTML from. What does this mean in terms of time to load?
It's important we get these recorded down at the very least for Barack Obama, but preferably for a wide variety of articles (I'd suggest taking the last 40 featured articles of the day- as these represent our best content).
Specifically:
* What % of total HTML is reference HTML.
** How does removing this impact first paint / first interactive / total load time.
* What % of total HTML is lead section HTML.
** How does removing this impact first paint / first interactive / total load time.
* How does removing images impact first paint / first interactive / total load time.
I think this data is vital for the dev summit when having a discussion around defer loading content.
Feel free to divide and conquer this card.
