Pre-hiding code snippet slowing down page load speed

[#1]

Good Morning Everyone,

I have  a question regarding the pre-hiding code snippet which is required when deploying Target via Launch.  We had to remove the code snippet as it was causing a 3 second delay in page loads.  Has anyone ever come across this issue?  If so, how was it resolved?

Thank you very much,

Alex

Hi Alex,

Pre-hiding snippet is required when Launch is loaded asynchronously. Loading Launch asynchronously is a non-blocking approach. The timeout configuration (3 seconds) in the pre-hiding snippet is the maximum timeout for Target response. With the right implementation, Launch script is added to the page in the right location, page will be visible as soon as Target responds which is usually 400ms. My recommendation is to revisit the implementation and make sure that Launch is added in the correct location on the page. 

Thanks,
Bala

Hi @ben68. Thanks for your reply. Could you provide an example or best practice as to where the right place to add Launch on the page should be? Thank you very much in advance, Alex
