Instead, we use GTMetrix to give us YSlow and PageSpeed scores with one simple test. Update: the YSlow plugin is no longer an option. Let’s take a look at a couple of the best, or you can go to the bottom of the page and watch our movie on the topic, then come back here for the details: YSlow by Yahoo Google and other tool makes have made some very easily used tools that not only let you know what problems your pages have, they also point you in the direction of how to fix them. There are a lot of processes that go into making any web page the goal is to make all these processes as optimized as possible so when they are all added together the page is snappy. Examples of process include: fetching files like the main content of the page, calling for and downloading: 1) any CSS files used to layout the content, 2) any images on the page, 3) any JavaScript on the page, and on and on. Each web page can be made up of dozens or even hundreds of processes, so every millisecond counts. Google has made it clear that any process that takes more than 100 milliseconds (1/10 of a second) is too long. This leads to an obvious question… What Does “Slow” Mean For Web Pages?
This is the second of several posts addressing issues around Google’s announcement that they are releasing a new architecture (called Caffeine) for their web search and their emphasis in conjunction with Caffeine’s release of how quickly web pages load.
