A Practical Edge Optimization Checklist

Every release should pass a small set of performance checks before going live.

1) Validate caching headers

Make sure immutable assets are cached aggressively and HTML is revalidated quickly.

2) Trim unused JavaScript

Ship only what is needed for above-the-fold interactions. Delay non-critical islands and third-party scripts.

3) Protect your Core Web Vitals budget

Track LCP, CLS, and INP in CI and alert on regressions.

4) Keep images format-aware

Use AVIF/WebP where supported, and ensure responsive srcset values to avoid overserving.
