Server-Timing response headers will pass through to the client

UpdateVerifiedAdded Sep 22, 2026

On August 10, 2026, Vercel's CDN will stop stripping the Server-Timing response header and begin passing it through to the client. Use Server-Timing to report backend metrics like database query time and cache hits. These values appear in the browser's network panel and as PerformanceServerTiming entries through the Performance API.
