Page Structure Ready Time
The total time from the user's click until the page's HTML skeleton is laid out — network, server and browser processing time all combined.

Computational logic
Unlike Browser processing time, this number is counted from the start of navigation (the click) to the browser's standard DOM Interactive event; meaning it includes network and server time too. The page-ready speed chart compares this same time across device, browser or operating system.
Use-case narrative & business value
If you want one number to understand how long the user actually waited, this is it — it shows the entire chain from the click to a page whose structure is ready, all in one. The device-split chart usually reveals a meaningful gap between mobile and desktop; since mobile processing power is lower, optimization priority usually goes to the mobile experience.
