This is how the typical loadtime of one of my page splits into :-
Domain Lookup 0 0 %
Connect 134 .3%
Request 19658 40%
Response 134 .3%
DOM 28808 58%
Interactive 1 -
Content Loaded 1427 -
Load Event 645 1%
These values are as per shown by chrome extension Page Rank Status. Now clearly the request and DOM part are the largest time consuming parts. Can anyone explain me what do Request, Response, DOM, Interactive, Load Event exactly corresponds to ? THis would help me in optimizing my website and reduce the overall page load time.
Thanks !
