About this talk

What the session covered.

Core Web Vitals remain the most misunderstood part of WordPress performance work.

At WordCamp Lithuania, Vineet revisited the fundamentals of LCP, INP, and CLS, and walked through the practical decisions that move the needle on real production sites.

The session focused on what actually ships improvements versus what looks good in audit tools.

Key takeaways

What this talk established.

Core Web Vitals are a diagnostic framework, not a pass/fail checklist.
LCP optimization starts with server response time, not image compression.
INP replaces FID and requires a different testing and profiling approach.
Most performance gains come from hosting, caching, and query discipline, not plugin swaps.
