Hi, we have published the site alison-sant.netlify.app recently and connected it to the (on godaddy hosted) domain alisonsant.com (with the A-Record option).
The site itself is a headless nuxt (latest v3) build relying on an externally hosted cms with simple API calls (useFetch calls that work with server-side rendering).
the site config has been optimised to use all features of netlify/nitro, meaning that the preset “netlify_edge” is activated as well as “ssr: true” and “prefetch: true” so it is building a very well compiled final version.
sadly when accessing the site on netlify (no matter which domain, either the internal netlify.app one or the custom godaddy one) it has a very long first rendering time (up to 10 seconds depending on the site url and page) during which the site is just staying blank.
I’m writing this post to find out if this could have to do with anything domain related (moving the domain completely to netlify is not an option as other things like MX records are being used actively on godaddy) or if it is rather an issue in the app published (maybe cause the API calls are sending too large json files and data which makes it slow on first rendering, even though it all should happen server-side with ssr and nitro active?).
thanks, N.
