Image Count per Page

Checks total image count per page — more than 30 is a performance warning.

What this check measures

We count all <img> elements and flag pages with >30. High counts correlate with performance issues — even lazy-loaded, parsing and layout is more expensive.

Why it matters

Pages with 50+ images take longer to parse, build layout tree, and consume more memory. On mid-range mobile, the difference is noticeable.

How our audit detects it

Count <img> elements in rendered DOM.

Typical findings

  • error_outlineEcommerce category page with 80 product thumbnails.
  • error_outlineBlog post with 40 inline screenshots.

How to fix

Paginate large lists. Use virtualization (react-window, TanStack Virtual) for huge grids. Consolidate icon libraries to SVG sprites.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a hard limit?expand_more
No — but above ~50 images, you should actively be thinking about pagination or virtualization.
