Benefits of the Performance Tool

The various benefits of the performance tool are:

  • Resources Information: The tool gives an idea of the various resources used and their sizes on the site. These help you inspect various resources and use the information to improve performance.
  • Import and export profile: You can import or export the profiling information in .json or .devtools format. This allows you to save the profile for later use and share it with others.
  • Various Graphs and Views: The tab provides various pie charts, graphs, and timelines to study the performance of the web page. You can also focus on a particular section in the timeline, which helps you focus on a particular time range.
  • Timeline screenshots: You also get the option to enable screenshots, which, when checked, capture screenshots during profiling and are displayed along with the timeline. You can hover over these screenshots to get a magnified view.
  • Memory Information: You can check the memory option to view graphs related to the JS heap, documents, nodes, listeners, and GPU memory. This helps to check how memory usage changes over a range of timelines.
