Performance: setResourceTimingBufferSize() method
Available in workers
The setResourceTimingBufferSize() method sets the desired size of the browser’s resource timing buffer which stores the "resource" performance entries.
The specification requires the resource timing buffer initially to be 250 or greater.
To clear the browser’s performance resource data buffer, use the
clearResourceTimings() method.
To get notified when the browser’s resource timing buffer is full, listen for the resourcetimingbufferfull event.
Syntax
setResourceTimingBufferSize(maxSize)
Parameters
maxSize- : A
numberrepresenting the maximum number ofPerformanceEntryobjects the browser should hold in its performance entry buffer.
- : A
Return value
None (undefined).
Examples
Setting a resource timing buffer size
The following call allows 500 "resource" performance entries in the browser’s performance timeline.
performance.setResourceTimingBufferSize(500);
If you set the buffer size to a number lower than the amount of current entries in the buffer, no entries will be removed. Instead, to clear the buffer, call clearResourceTimings().
performance.getEntriesByType("resource").length; // 20
performance.setResourceTimingBufferSize(10);
performance.getEntriesByType("resource").length; // 20
performance.clearResourceTimings();
performance.getEntriesByType("resource").length; // 0
