Browser Diet
This is pure gold for web developers.
And is exactly all the recommendations at Google Pagespeed but with a nice explanation.

Under optimize your images I think they should add Tinypng.org
I know smush.it is very nice, but tinypng.org actually does it even better.
Great site, did you make it?
I only feed my browser vegetables.
I should be good to go.
I enjoyed reading that. Thanks!
Me, too. Thanks yomero!
@yomero great site Thank you and it has some names I like there too *lots of this is very progressive, some subjective, But there are things lots of Developers aren't doing that even I just started to adopt as policy more recently than not. For instance: Chaining. Lots of great developers are not making use of this. They are hogging resources, albeit on a minute level, and writing just ugly looking code when they could have all the functionality they need in one line. One line, period. I had a coworker last year who really taught me to use the tools I have available, and some I wasn't using more out of obstinance than not. If you aren't using those tools and these methods (no pun intended) You aren't going to make it as a Developer. Really got me back on the horse as a *researcher in the past year. Swhy I hate hearing people knock programming languages. Are those people doing anything innovative and progressive in a days time, to say nothing of making money from it? And learning any thing to boot? I doubt it. Any how sorry for the wall, But this is time for the resurgence fellas. Of the whole show. We need to take this infrastructure into the future.
A good read. But I felt a terrible miss about the server performance tuning, regarding memory footprint and/or disks IO necessary on the server side to render page. If my customers chose more lightweight engines than Wordpress and Joomla to run their website, I wouldn't need to look for more servers each time I get new customers
One day, I had a customer expecting 100 concurrent visits in peak time, running his site (a site, not a blog) with Wordpress, while a single visit increased memory usage by at least 200MB. I'd need 20GB RAM just for him, while if his website were made static, 20MB would have been enough.
At least this article could have warned people to avoid using these popular but terrible CMSes.
Well, yes.
I think that's because the article is oriented just for the code side of the stuff. Not for sysadmins :P but for programmers.
And probably, there are a lot more resources for that kind of optimizations.
But that is apache stuff u_u
Hehe, it mentions 'compressing' the HTML to remove indentation and comments, although their 'view source' is hypocritical..
Good suggestions though!
good read! i certainly learned a lot of new tricks today
@DotMG
Enabling Caching would speed things up, right?
Thanks for the share @yomero
Bookmarked!
@eastonch yes, but that doesn't mean Wordpress isn't bloatware.
