Timings for individual connection phases do not sum to the overall RTT because, for example, the request that exhibits the 95th percentile DNS time, will most likely not also be the 95th percentile on all other connection metrics.</p> <p>Typically Polyfill.io is loaded at a point where the browser is very busy.
