**Description of Issue**  
The progress spinner on the tab completes and displays the favicon and title, but there’s a 4 second delay before the page renders.

Not seeing any delay as such with shields up.

You do have a delay there of around 2 seconds, which is shorter than my 4 seconds. Here’s my recording.

In Chrome this page renders instantly, there’s something different about how Brave handles it that makes it take almost 4 seconds longer than Chrome.

Note that it happens on all pages of this site, not just the homepage.

I have also noticed that the hyperlinks are actually created before anything is visible (hovering over them shows the tooltip, cursor, address). So you can click on nothing and end up being navigated.

And just to reiterate, this problem is specific to Brave, and does not happen in Chrome.

I have switched to Vivaldi for now. I can confirm this problem does not occur in Vivaldi.

@fanboynz thank you for that speed test. That was Brave. Pun intended. So even with the blank screen appearing brave is still faster
