Test Preloading the AMP Runtime

Preloading v0.js on Origins

This experiment synthetically tests if using a meta preload tag assists LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) for a specific Wordpress Blog output using AMP.

If you'd like to try locally, here are the steps:

1. Clone this repo
2. yarn install to install tachometer and chromedriver.
3. yarn bench to run the experiment locally using Headless Chrome.

The results look pretty clear, the meta preload tag hurts LCP for this sample.
