A year ago, we released a preview of the PageSpeed Insights Chrome
Developer Tools extension, which analyzes the performance of web pages
and provides suggestions to make them faster. Today, we’re releasing
version 2.0 of the PageSpeed Insights extension, available in the
Chrome Web Store.

PageSpeed Insights analyzes all aspects of a web page load and points
out the specific things you can do to make your page faster. For
instance, PageSpeed Insights can inform you about an expensive
JavaScript call that blocks the renderer for too long, remind you about
that new photo on the front page of your web site that you might have
forgotten to resize or optimize, or recommend changing the way you load
third-party content so it no longer blocks the page load.

PageSpeed Insights for Chrome is a Chrome Developer Tools extension
that analyzes all aspects of the page load, including resources,
network, DOM, and the timeline. If you're already familiar with Chrome
Developer Tools, you'll find that PageSpeed Insights integrates with a
toolset you're already using.



Using technologies like Native Client, PageSpeed Insights is able to
run the open-source PageSpeed Insights SDK securely and with the
performance of native code. Leveraging the Insights SDK enables the
Chrome extension to automatically optimize the images, CSS, JavaScript
and HTML resources on your web page and provide versions of those
resources that you can easily deploy on your website.

We hope you’ll give PageSpeed Insights for Chrome a try and start
optimizing your web pages today. We’d love to hear from you, as always.
Please try PageSpeed Insights for Chrome, and give us feedback on our
mailing list with questions, comments, and new features you’d like to
see.
