INP over time

Weekly p75. The dashed line is the 200 ms "good" threshold.

What the numbers say

  • Google Cloud fails Core Web Vitals on Largest Contentful Paint (2.9 s, good is 2.5 s or less) and Interaction to Next Paint (331 ms, good is 200 ms or less).
  • The server answers slowly: time to first byte is 1.4 s, 49% of the LCP time, so a faster backend or cache would help most.
  • Among 16 hosting and cloud sites we track, Google Cloud has the 11th fastest LCP.
  • INP has improved by 47 ms over the last 25 weeks, from 390 ms to 343 ms.

Keep a site like this from getting slower

Real-user data shows a regression weeks after it ships. Vitalgate runs Lighthouse on every pull request and fails the check when a change breaks budgets like these: LCP ≤ 2.9 s, CLS ≤ 0.10, FCP ≤ 2.6 s.
