# Minimize HTTP requests
Each HTTP request incurs network overhead—DNS lookup, TCP connection, and TLS handshake add latency. Reducing requests significantly improves initial load time.
## Quick Reference
- Each HTTP request adds latency (DNS, TCP, TLS handshakes)
- HTTP/2 multiplexing reduces but doesn't eliminate request overhead
- Bundle critical CSS/JS, use SVG sprites for icons
- Target under 50 requests for initial page load
## Check
Count the number of HTTP requests this page makes and identify opportunities for reduction.
