☂️ PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT

See original GitHub issue

tl;dr - Chrome sometimes stops responding, most commonly when trying to clear the cache, so uncheck “Clear storage” and try again.

Explanation This is the umbrella ☂️ issue for all PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT error reports. We’re collecting all of them in a single place so that we can easily identify which protocol methods are most problematic to prioritize to Chromium domain owners.

PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT refers to the situation when Lighthouse has been waiting for Chrome to respond to a single command for more than 30 seconds. PROTOCOL refers to the Chrome DevTools Protocol connection that Lighthouse uses to talk to Chrome.

If you experienced a protocol timeout issue, please just comment here with the method name, e.g. Network.clearBrowserCache

@Yasuslik thanks for the link, I managed to fix it with lighthouse --chrome-flags="--disable-dev-shm-usage" 🥳
