一、浏览器架构

1.1 多进程架构

Chrome浏览器进程架构：

┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│         Browser Process (主进程)         │
│  • UI线程、网络线程、存储线程             │
└─────────────────┬───────────────────────┘
                  │
    ┌─────────────┼─────────────┐
    │             │             │
┌───▼────┐  ┌────▼────┐  ┌────▼────┐
│Renderer│  │Renderer │  │ Plugin  │

1.2 渲染进程线程

线程	职责
GUI渲染线程	解析HTML/CSS，构建DOM树，布局绘制
JS引擎线程	执行JavaScript代码
事件触发线程	管理事件队列
定时器线程	管理setTimeout/setInterval
异步HTTP线程	处理网络请求

// GUI渲染线程与JS引擎线程互斥
// 长时间JS执行会阻塞渲染
function longTask() {
  const start = Date.now();
  while (Date.now() - start < 3000) {
    // 阻塞3秒，页面无法响应
  }
}

// 优化：拆分任务
function optimizedTask() {
  let count = 0;
  function chunk() {
    for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
      count++;
    }
    if (count < 1000000) {
      setTimeout(chunk, 0); // 让出主线程
    }
  }
  chunk();
}

二、渲染流程详解

2.1 关键渲染路径

1. 解析HTML → DOM树
2. 解析CSS → CSSOM树
3. DOM + CSSOM → 渲染树(Render Tree)
4. 布局(Layout) → 计算位置和大小
5. 绘制(Paint) → 绘制像素
6. 合成(Composite) → 合成图层

// 触发重排(Reflow)的操作
element.offsetWidth
element.clientHeight
element.scrollTop
window.getComputedStyle()
element.style.width = '100px'

// 触发重绘(Repaint)的操作
element.style.color = 'red'
element.style.backgroundColor = 'blue'

// 只触发合成(Composite)
element.style.transform = 'translateX(100px)'
element.style.opacity = 0.5

2.2 重排与重绘

// ❌ 多次重排
element.style.width = '100px';
element.style.height = '100px';
element.style.margin = '10px';

// ✅ 批量修改
element.style.cssText = 'width: 100px; height: 100px; margin: 10px;';

// ✅ 使用class
element.className = 'new-style';

// ❌ 频繁读取布局属性
for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
  const width = element.offsetWidth; // 每次都触发重排
  element.style.width = width + 1 + 'px';
}

// ✅ 缓存布局属性
const width = element.offsetWidth;
for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
  element.style.width = width + i + 'px';
}

2.3 图层与合成

/* 创建独立图层 */
.layer {
  /* 方式1: transform 3D */
  transform: translateZ(0);
  
  /* 方式2: will-change */
  will-change: transform;
  
  /* 方式3: position + z-index */
  position: fixed;
  
  /* 方式4: video/canvas */
}

/* 动画优化 */
.animated {
  /* ❌ 触发重排 */
  animation: move 1s;
}

@keyframes move {
  from { left: 0; }
  to { left: 100px; }
}

/* ✅ 只触发合成 */
.optimized {
  animation: optimized-move 1s;
}

@keyframes optimized-move {
  from { transform: translateX(0); }
  to { transform: translateX(100px); }
}

三、JavaScript执行机制

3.1 事件循环

/*
事件循环流程：
1. 执行同步代码
2. 执行微任务队列(Microtask)
3. 执行宏任务队列(Macrotask)
4. 重复2-3
*/

console.log('1. 同步代码');

setTimeout(() => {
  console.log('2. setTimeout (宏任务)');
}, 0);

Promise.resolve().then(() => {
  console.log('3. Promise (微任务)');
});

console.log('4. 同步代码');

// 输出顺序: 1 → 4 → 3 → 2

3.2 宏任务与微任务

类型	任务
宏任务	setTimeout, setInterval, I/O, UI渲染
微任务	Promise, MutationObserver, queueMicrotask

// 复杂示例
console.log('start');

setTimeout(() => {
  console.log('setTimeout1');
  Promise.resolve().then(() => {
    console.log('promise1');
  });
}, 0);

Promise.resolve().then(() => {
  console.log('promise2');
  setTimeout(() => {
    console.log('setTimeout2');
  }, 0);
});

console.log('end');

// 输出: start → end → promise2 → setTimeout1 → promise1 → setTimeout2

3.3 requestAnimationFrame

// ❌ 使用setTimeout做动画
function animate() {
  element.style.left = element.offsetLeft + 1 + 'px';
  setTimeout(animate, 16); // 约60fps
}

// ✅ 使用requestAnimationFrame
function animate() {
  element.style.left = element.offsetLeft + 1 + 'px';
  requestAnimationFrame(animate);
}

// requestIdleCallback - 空闲时执行
requestIdleCallback((deadline) => {
  while (deadline.timeRemaining() > 0 && tasks.length > 0) {
    const task = tasks.shift();
    task();
  }
});

四、浏览器存储

4.1 存储方式对比

存储方式	大小	生命周期	作用域	特点
Cookie	4KB	可设置过期时间	同源	自动携带到请求
localStorage	5-10MB	永久	同源	同步API
sessionStorage	5-10MB	会话结束	同源+同标签	同步API
IndexedDB	无限制	永久	同源	异步API，支持事务

4.2 Cookie操作

// 设置Cookie
document.cookie = 'username=john; max-age=3600; path=/; secure; samesite=strict';

// 读取Cookie
function getCookie(name) {
  const value = `; ${document.cookie}`;
  const parts = value.split(`; ${name}=`);
  if (parts.length === 2) {
    return parts.pop().split(';').shift();
  }
}

// 删除Cookie
function deleteCookie(name) {
  document.cookie = `${name}=; max-age=0; path=/`;
}

// Cookie工具类
class CookieManager {
  static set(name, value, options = {}) {
    let cookie = `${name}=${encodeURIComponent(value)}`;
    
    if (options.maxAge) {
      cookie += `; max-age=${options.maxAge}`;
    }
    if (options.path) {
      cookie += `; path=${options.path}`;
    }
    if (options.domain) {
      cookie += `; domain=${options.domain}`;
    }
    if (options.secure) {
      cookie += '; secure';
    }
    if (options.sameSite) {
      cookie += `; samesite=${options.sameSite}`;
    }
    
    document.cookie = cookie;
  }
  
  static get(name) {
    const value = `; ${document.cookie}`;
    const parts = value.split(`; ${name}=`);
    if (parts.length === 2) {
      return decodeURIComponent(parts.pop().split(';').shift());
    }
    return null;
  }
  
  static remove(name, options = {}) {
    this.set(name, '', { ...options, maxAge: -1 });
  }
}

4.3 localStorage与sessionStorage

// 基础操作
localStorage.setItem('key', 'value');
const value = localStorage.getItem('key');
localStorage.removeItem('key');
localStorage.clear();

// 存储对象
const user = { name: 'John', age: 25 };
localStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify(user));
const savedUser = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user'));

// Storage工具类
class StorageManager {
  constructor(storage = localStorage) {
    this.storage = storage;
  }
  
  set(key, value, expire) {
    const data = {
      value,
      expire: expire ? Date.now() + expire : null
    };
    this.storage.setItem(key, JSON.stringify(data));
  }
  
  get(key) {
    const item = this.storage.getItem(key);
    if (!item) return null;
    
    const data = JSON.parse(item);
    
    if (data.expire && Date.now() > data.expire) {
      this.remove(key);
      return null;
    }
    
    return data.value;
  }
  
  remove(key) {
    this.storage.removeItem(key);
  }
  
  clear() {
    this.storage.clear();
  }
}

// 使用
const storage = new StorageManager();
storage.set('token', 'abc123', 3600000); // 1小时后过期

4.4 IndexedDB

// 打开数据库
function openDB(dbName, version = 1) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const request = indexedDB.open(dbName, version);
    
    request.onerror = () => reject(request.error);
    request.onsuccess = () => resolve(request.result);
    
    request.onupgradeneeded = (event) => {
      const db = event.target.result;
      
      if (!db.objectStoreNames.contains('users')) {
        const store = db.createObjectStore('users', { keyPath: 'id', autoIncrement: true });
        store.createIndex('name', 'name', { unique: false });
        store.createIndex('email', 'email', { unique: true });
      }
    };
  });
}

// 添加数据
async function addUser(user) {
  const db = await openDB('myDB');
  const transaction = db.transaction(['users'], 'readwrite');
  const store = transaction.objectStore('users');
  
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const request = store.add(user);
    request.onsuccess = () => resolve(request.result);
    request.onerror = () => reject(request.error);
  });
}

// 查询数据
async function getUser(id) {
  const db = await openDB('myDB');
  const transaction = db.transaction(['users'], 'readonly');
  const store = transaction.objectStore('users');
  
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const request = store.get(id);
    request.onsuccess = () => resolve(request.result);
    request.onerror = () => reject(request.error);
  });
}

// 更新数据
async function updateUser(user) {
  const db = await openDB('myDB');
  const transaction = db.transaction(['users'], 'readwrite');
  const store = transaction.objectStore('users');
  
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const request = store.put(user);
    request.onsuccess = () => resolve(request.result);
    request.onerror = () => reject(request.error);
  });
}

// 删除数据
async function deleteUser(id) {
  const db = await openDB('myDB');
  const transaction = db.transaction(['users'], 'readwrite');
  const store = transaction.objectStore('users');
  
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const request = store.delete(id);
    request.onsuccess = () => resolve();
    request.onerror = () => reject(request.error);
  });
}

五、性能优化策略

5.1 资源加载优化

<!-- 预加载 -->
<link rel="preload" href="style.css" as="style">
<link rel="preload" href="script.js" as="script">
<link rel="preload" href="font.woff2" as="font" type="font/woff2" crossorigin>

<!-- 预连接 -->
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://api.example.com">
<link rel="dns-prefetch" href="https://cdn.example.com">

<!-- 预获取 -->
<link rel="prefetch" href="next-page.js">

<!-- 异步加载脚本 -->
<script src="script.js" async></script>
<script src="script.js" defer></script>

<!-- 模块预加载 -->
<link rel="modulepreload" href="module.js">

// 动态导入
const module = await import('./module.js');

// 图片懒加载
const images = document.querySelectorAll('img[data-src]');
const imageObserver = new IntersectionObserver((entries) => {
  entries.forEach(entry => {
    if (entry.isIntersecting) {
      const img = entry.target;
      img.src = img.dataset.src;
      imageObserver.unobserve(img);
    }
  });
});

images.forEach(img => imageObserver.observe(img));

5.2 代码优化

// 防抖
function debounce(fn, delay) {
  let timer = null;
  return function(...args) {
    clearTimeout(timer);
    timer = setTimeout(() => fn.apply(this, args), delay);
  };
}

// 节流
function throttle(fn, delay) {
  let last = 0;
  return function(...args) {
    const now = Date.now();
    if (now - last >= delay) {
      last = now;
      fn.apply(this, args);
    }
  };
}

// 使用
window.addEventListener('scroll', throttle(() => {
  console.log('scroll event');
}, 200));

// 虚拟滚动
class VirtualScroll {
  constructor(container, itemHeight, totalItems) {
    this.container = container;
    this.itemHeight = itemHeight;
    this.totalItems = totalItems;
    this.visibleCount = Math.ceil(container.clientHeight / itemHeight);
    
    this.render();
    container.addEventListener('scroll', () => this.render());
  }
  
  render() {
    const scrollTop = this.container.scrollTop;
    const startIndex = Math.floor(scrollTop / this.itemHeight);
    const endIndex = Math.min(startIndex + this.visibleCount, this.totalItems);
    
    // 只渲染可见区域的元素
    this.container.innerHTML = '';
    for (let i = startIndex; i < endIndex; i++) {
      const item = document.createElement('div');
      item.style.height = this.itemHeight + 'px';
      item.textContent = `Item ${i}`;
      this.container.appendChild(item);
    }
  }
}

5.3 渲染优化

// 使用DocumentFragment批量操作DOM
const fragment = document.createDocumentFragment();
for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
  const div = document.createElement('div');
  div.textContent = `Item ${i}`;
  fragment.appendChild(div);
}
container.appendChild(fragment);

// 使用CSS containment
.container {
  contain: layout style paint;
}

// 使用content-visibility
.lazy-section {
  content-visibility: auto;
  contain-intrinsic-size: 0 500px;
}

// Web Worker处理复杂计算
// main.js
const worker = new Worker('worker.js');
worker.postMessage({ data: largeArray });
worker.onmessage = (e) => {
  console.log('Result:', e.data);
};

// worker.js
self.onmessage = (e) => {
  const result = heavyComputation(e.data);
  self.postMessage(result);
};

5.4 网络优化

// HTTP/2服务器推送
// 在服务器配置中启用

// 资源压缩
// Gzip/Brotli压缩

// CDN加速
const cdnUrl = 'https://cdn.example.com';

// Service Worker缓存
self.addEventListener('install', (event) => {
  event.waitUntil(
    caches.open('v1').then((cache) => {
      return cache.addAll([
        '/',
        '/styles.css',
        '/script.js',
        '/image.png'
      ]);
    })
  );
});

self.addEventListener('fetch', (event) => {
  event.respondWith(
    caches.match(event.request).then((response) => {
      return response || fetch(event.request);
    })
  );
});

六、性能监控与分析

6.1 Performance API

// 页面加载性能
const perfData = performance.getEntriesByType('navigation')[0];

console.log('DNS查询:', perfData.domainLookupEnd - perfData.domainLookupStart);
console.log('TCP连接:', perfData.connectEnd - perfData.connectStart);
console.log('请求响应:', perfData.responseEnd - perfData.requestStart);
console.log('DOM解析:', perfData.domInteractive - perfData.responseEnd);
console.log('资源加载:', perfData.loadEventStart - perfData.domContentLoadedEventEnd);

// 资源加载性能
const resources = performance.getEntriesByType('resource');
resources.forEach(resource => {
  console.log(resource.name, resource.duration);
});

// 自定义性能标记
performance.mark('start-task');
// 执行任务
performance.mark('end-task');
performance.measure('task-duration', 'start-task', 'end-task');

const measures = performance.getEntriesByType('measure');
console.log(measures[0].duration);

6.2 Web Vitals

// 首次内容绘制(FCP)
new PerformanceObserver((list) => {
  for (const entry of list.getEntries()) {
    if (entry.name === 'first-contentful-paint') {
      console.log('FCP:', entry.startTime);
    }
  }
}).observe({ entryTypes: ['paint'] });

// 最大内容绘制(LCP)
new PerformanceObserver((list) => {
  const entries = list.getEntries();
  const lastEntry = entries[entries.length - 1];
  console.log('LCP:', lastEntry.startTime);
}).observe({ entryTypes: ['largest-contentful-paint'] });

// 首次输入延迟(FID)
new PerformanceObserver((list) => {
  for (const entry of list.getEntries()) {
    console.log('FID:', entry.processingStart - entry.startTime);
  }
}).observe({ entryTypes: ['first-input'] });

// 累积布局偏移(CLS)
let clsScore = 0;
new PerformanceObserver((list) => {
  for (const entry of list.getEntries()) {
    if (!entry.hadRecentInput) {
      clsScore += entry.value;
    }
  }
  console.log('CLS:', clsScore);
}).observe({ entryTypes: ['layout-shift'] });

6.3 性能监控实践

class PerformanceMonitor {
  constructor() {
    this.metrics = {};
    this.init();
  }
  
  init() {
    // 页面加载完成后收集指标
    window.addEventListener('load', () => {
      this.collectMetrics();
      this.reportMetrics();
    });
  }
  
  collectMetrics() {
    const perfData = performance.getEntriesByType('navigation')[0];
    
    this.metrics = {
      // 页面加载时间
      pageLoadTime: perfData.loadEventEnd - perfData.fetchStart,
      
      // DNS查询时间
      dnsTime: perfData.domainLookupEnd - perfData.domainLookupStart,
      
      // TCP连接时间
      tcpTime: perfData.connectEnd - perfData.connectStart,
      
      // 请求响应时间
      requestTime: perfData.responseEnd - perfData.requestStart,
      
      // DOM解析时间
      domParseTime: perfData.domInteractive - perfData.responseEnd,
      
      // 资源加载时间
      resourceLoadTime: perfData.loadEventStart - perfData.domContentLoadedEventEnd,
      
      // 首次渲染时间
      firstPaintTime: this.getFirstPaint(),
      
      // 首次内容绘制
      firstContentfulPaint: this.getFCP()
    };
  }
  
  getFirstPaint() {
    const paint = performance.getEntriesByType('paint');
    const fp = paint.find(entry => entry.name === 'first-paint');
    return fp ? fp.startTime : 0;
  }
  
  getFCP() {
    const paint = performance.getEntriesByType('paint');
    const fcp = paint.find(entry => entry.name === 'first-contentful-paint');
    return fcp ? fcp.startTime : 0;
  }
  
  reportMetrics() {
    // 上报到监控平台
    fetch('/api/metrics', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
      body: JSON.stringify({
        ...this.metrics,
        url: location.href,
        userAgent: navigator.userAgent,
        timestamp: Date.now()
      })
    });
  }
}

// 初始化监控
new PerformanceMonitor();
