Need some guidance to speed up your web rendering?

Or need to check that what you have done in the performance area matches others? Here are some really good pages for improving your web page rendering:

  • Best Practices for Speeding Up Your Web Site
    • Definitely read this article (all the way), even if you think you know the first couple of recommendations there are some less well known ones towards the end.
  • How we improved performance on Google Code
    • This covers how Google Code performance was increased – its always interesting when you see how “Giants” solve common problems.
  • Yahoo! YSlow
    • YSlow analyzes web pages and suggests ways to improve their performance based on a set of rules for high performance web pages. YSlow is a Firefox add-on integrated with the Firebug web development tool.
  • Exceptional Performance
    • Yahoo!’s Exceptional Performance team evangelizes best practices for improving web performance.

And for any of those out there using YUI the “YUI 3.0.0 beta 1 Available for Download” has just been made available.
