Render blocking status : Self-Review Questionnaire: Security and Privacy

Self-Review Questionnaire: Security and Privacy

This questionnaire has moved.

For your convenience, a copy of the questionnaire's questions is quoted here in Markdown, so you can easily include your answers in an explainer.

  1. What information might this feature expose to Web sites or other parties, and for what purposes is that exposure necessary?

It exposes information relating to if a particular resource blocks rendering or not.

Render Blocking Status

Proposal to add a new field render blocking status to PerformanceResourceTiming which holds a string highlighting the status of stylesheets and scripts.

Use cases

RUM providers could then easily determine the render blocking resources without having to rely on complex heurestics to determine the same. This would enable analysis for below scenaarios and possibly more.

  • Determine resources downloaded before FCP but were not render blocking? (and hence, could've been delayed)
  • Determine resources that were render blocking, but weren't discovered early enough? (and hence, could've benefited from being preloaded)
