#2074 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

Google Analytics in Core Trac uses non-async script, may get blocked in mobile Chrome

Description

An old Google Analytics snippet is being used which employs a blocking script. Not only does this slow down page load time, but Chrome will also start blocking these from being loaded on slow connections.

This will eventually be invalidated by #1017.
