The PerformanceFrameTiming interface provides frame timing data about the browser's event loop. A frame represents the amount of work a browser does in one event loop iteration such as processing DOM events, resizing, scrolling, rendering, CSS animations, etc. A frame rate of 60 fps (frames per second) for a 60 Hz refresh rate is a common target for a good responsive user experience. This means the browser should process a frame in about 16.7 ms.

The Performance Timeline API defines extensions to the Performance interface to support client-side latency measurements within applications. The extensions provide interfaces to retrieve performance entry metrics based on specific filter criteria. The standard also includes interfaces that allow an application to define performance observer callbacks that are notified when specific performance events are added to the browser's performance timeline.

The standard also includes interfaces that allow an application to be notified when specific performance events occur. Together, these interfaces can be used to help identify an application's performance bottlenecks.
The Resource Timing interfaces enable retrieving and analyzing detailed network timing data regarding the loading of an application's resource(s). An application can use the timing metrics to determine, for example, the length of time it takes to load a specific resource, such as an XMLHttpRequest, <SVG>, image, or script.

The clearMarks() method removes the named mark from the browser's performance entry buffer. If the method is called with no arguments, all performance entries with an entry type of "mark" will be removed from the performance entry buffer.
The clearMeasures() method removes the named measure from the browser's performance entry buffer. If the method is called with no arguments, all performance entries with an entry type of "measure" will be removed from the performance entry buffer.
The clearResourceTimings() method removes all performance entries with an entryType of "resource" from the browser's performance data buffer and sets the size of the performance data buffer to zero. To set the size of the browser's performance data buffer, use the Performance.setResourceTimingBufferSize() method.
The getEntries() method returns a list of PerformanceEntry objects for a given filter. The list's members (entries) can be created by making performance marks or measures (for example by calling the mark() method) at explicit points in time.
The getEntriesByName() method returns a list of PerformanceEntry objects for the given name and type. The list's members (entries) can be created by making performance marks or measures (for example by calling the mark() method) at explicit points in time.
The getEntriesByType() method returns a list of PerformanceEntry objects for a given type. The list's members (entries) can be created by making performance marks or measures (for example by calling the mark() method) at explicit points in time.
The measure() method creates a named timestamp in the browser's performance entry buffer between two specified marks (known as the start mark and end mark, respectively). The named timestamp is referred to as a measure.
The setResourceTimingBufferSize() method sets the browser's resource timing buffer size to the specified number of "resource" performance entry type objects.
A fundamental requirement of web performance is a precise and consistent definition of time. The DOMHighResTimeStamp type (a double) is used by all performance interfaces to hold such time values. Additionally, there must be a way to create a timestamp for a specific point in time; this is done with the now() method.
The PerformanceEntry object encapsulates a single performance metric that is part of the performance timeline. A performance entry can be directly created by making a performance mark or measure (for example by calling the mark() method) at an explicit point in an application. Performance entries are also created in indirect ways such as loading a resource (such as an image).
