Is there a way to load my Blazor page faster?

Question

Hi all;

I go to a page on my Blazor (server) app, then press refresh. Chrome normal reload. The very first request of the browser (F12 - Network) is for Dashboard which is the page it is refreshing. That request takes 1.02 seconds (ow!!!)

This is hitting my app on Azure App Server. Is there anything I can do to speed this up? All of the substantial times strike me as much higher than reasonable?

I did it several additional times and the DNS lookup dropped to 17 μs but the other three continued to take a lot of time.

??? - thanks - dave

Answer 1

if you hit refresh with a Blazor app, it unloads the running app and starts a new one (actually two if pre-render enabled). the main speedup is to be sure your Blazor initial startup is fast.
