Hello!

This month we have posting more web performance content, as well as introducing a new dashboard. Let’s take a look at some of the highlights.

How to measure backend performance with Server Timings

Server Timings give you a way to see what’s happening on the server while an HTTP request is being processed. These metrics can be useful for identifying bottlenecks in APIs, caches, databases, or specific parts of your application.

In our new blog post, we cover everything you need to know. From implementing headers correctly, inspecting timings in DevTools and monitoring performance over time.

If you’re interested in understanding and improving backend performance, then this article is a must read.

Network Efficiency Guardrails

Microsoft’s new Network Efficiency Guardrails is an experimental Edge feature designed to identify resource-loading patterns that can hurt real world performance.

In this full guide, we cover what this feature detects, how to enable it in Edge, implement it in Nuxt 4, and inspect the results in DevTools.

Find Web Performance Bottlenecks

Our latest video takes a look at our new free Page Speed Bottleneck Finder tool.

This tool was built to quickly identify performance bottlenecks that aren’t always obvious when inspecting a page in Chrome. While Chrome flags certain requests as render-blocking, there are other requests that can inadvertently impact important rendering milestones such as First Contentful Paint (FCP), Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), and the H1 element.

By delaying requests, we can measure their impact and uncover potential optimizations that go unnoticed. Check out the video to learn more and try the tool today.

New: Uptime Monitoring

This month we launched our new Uptime Monitoring dashboard.

You can now run automated checks as frequently as every minute to continuously monitor your site’s availability. Uptime checks can validate status codes, page content, and more, helping you to ensure your website is working properly. If downtime occurs, you can enable alerting to be notified immediately.

Read the documentation for more details.

Check out the full changelog for August to see what else we’ve been working on.

Regards,

The DebugBear Team
