INP over time

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

What the numbers say

  • Firebase fails Core Web Vitals on Largest Contentful Paint (2.6 s, good is 2.5 s or less).
  • The server answers slowly: time to first byte is 1.7 s, 65% of the LCP time, so a faster backend or cache would help most.
  • Among 16 hosting and cloud sites we track, Firebase has the 10th fastest LCP.
  • INP has held steady around 111 ms over the last 25 weeks.

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 ≤ 2.7 s, CLS ≤ 0.10, FCP ≤ 2.5 s.
