I have a site built on HTML/CSS/JS/PHP/MySQL and I'm trying to determine what is consuming the bulk of the operations involved in loading my pages. Google Chrome's timeline shows
and I'm wondering what is "Scripting" and "Idle"? With that said, what is "Painting"?
Scripting is defined by the scripting events in the documentation:
Painting events are described as well.
Idle seems to be time that is not spent handling any events.
