help Batch Speed (RapidSpike) FAQ

What does Batch Speed, formerly RapidSpike, measure?

Batch Speed measures how long a web server takes to process and send multiple HTTP requests in one batch. It is a backend timing check rather than a score for a site's visual design.

Why does Batch Speed matter for page performance?

Slow processing of a batch of HTTP requests can point to backend infrastructure that delays page delivery. Finding that delay helps separate server problems from issues in the browser or page layout.

How should I interpret a slow Batch Speed result?

A longer processing and sending time suggests that the server or its supporting infrastructure may be handling requests inefficiently. Comparing the result before and after a backend change can show whether the change improved request handling.

Is Batch Speed the same as a full webpage speed test?

No. Batch Speed focuses on how a server processes and sends multiple HTTP requests, while a full page test also includes browser loading, assets, rendering, and network conditions.
