My project uses nuxt.js with Firebase. I use the nuxt/Firebase package. I have many pages which use asyncData or fetch to get data from Firebase database and storage,e.g. blog posts , classified ads etc.
All works well and I added meta tags using nuxt head property.
However, the page load time before displaying any content is more than 5 seconds.
I tried wrapping some of my pages which are related to authenticated users and are not needed for SEO in a client-only tag, but I see no improvement.
All this happens when I deploy my app in production. I use firebase hosting.
Does anyone know how can I SSR the same content as I do know, but increase the page load time.
Here is a report from lighthouse tab in chrome devtools. It says some css is a render-blocking resource.

Ok. I managed to increase page loading speed by at least 100% by setting in nuxt.config.js file
Then you should locally import material icons like so:
And then you can use this addCircleIcon in your template like so:
So now instead of loading material design icons from cdn, which is the default vuetify behavior, i do it locally and it doesn't block the initial rendering of the page.
Also setting vuetify's treeshake option to false increase site loading speed.
