Fix Guide
How to Fix Large JavaScript Payloads
The page appears to load many script resources.
Recommended fix
Remove unused third-party scripts, split code, defer non-critical JavaScript, and hydrate less UI.
This guide is designed to pair with a scanner report. Run a URL scan first, then follow the implementation steps.
Developer task
Audit bundles and third-party tags, then defer or remove non-essential scripts.
Implementation steps
How to apply this fix
- List all first-party and third-party scripts the page loads.
- Remove or consolidate tags that are unused, duplicated, or low-value.
- Add defer or async to non-critical scripts and code-split large bundles.
- Reduce client-side hydration where server-rendered HTML is enough.
- Re-scan and check that script count and payload findings improve.
Verify
Re-run the URL scan after deploying the change to confirm the issue clears and the Themerella Score updates.
