TTFB seems off - sjernigan - 05-28-2014 06:12 AM Help me understand this result. First byte at 6.1s and first line item TTFB at 1.9s? http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140527_F5_101C/1/details/cached/ RE: TTFB seems off - pmeenan - 05-28-2014 06:27 AM The page-level first byte time is for the first byte of actual HTML content so the 302 redirect time + the time for the page that it was redirected to. Looks like an interesting case for repeat view where the base HTML is cacheable though. For the first view I assume there's an HTML request right after the redirect and the first byte time is the point where that completes. In this case it should be ~2.8s since the page that was redirected to is already in cache.
