Tim Kadlec groups all the things you could measure in a performance budget into four groups:

  1. Milestone timings (Example: time to visually complete)
  2. SpeedIndex (WebPageTest’s well-loved but isolated score)
  3. Quantity based metrics (Example: number of requests)
  4. Rule based metrics (Example: getting a “B” in “Use cookie-free domains”)
