Web Performance 101

I gave my Web Performance 101 presentation at the London Web Performance Meetup on Tuesday and it appeared to go down well!

I have uploaded the presentation to Slideshare for future reference and it’s had > 500 views in 24 hours, so it goes to show that web performance is a hot topic!

Great post. I'm one of the inventors of mod_gzip and we're getting ready to release a new software solution for Mobile Web Performance. It will allow you to measure HTTP traffic in real time from inside the browser. It will have waterfall charts etc., plus the ability to use real time geo location, device information and Carrier info.

Let me know if you're interested in learning more (peter dot cranstone @ 5o9inc.com)

Cheers,

Alexa has performance rankings too!

I must confess that this one had slipped past me… I wasn’t aware that Alexa was now offering performance rankings as well! Alexa now shows an “average load time” as well as a “comparitive ranking” (i.e. 51% of sites are slower). Interesting data for your next website analysis! It’s worth noting that the quoted “1.404 seconds” is about the same as the “repeat view” measurement webpagetest.org (testing from the UK node shows that www.johnlewis.com takes about 7.2 seconds to load with an empty cache, and 1.6 seconds with a primed cache, median values over 5 runs). Presumably this is an average across all Alexa toolbar users, on all johnlewis.com pages (large and small) with empty and primed caches.

Can’t wait to implement this on some customer sites!

Movember - Donate to me

Hi, It's Movember, the month formerly known as November, now dedicated to growing moustaches and raising awareness and funds for men's health; specifically prostate and testicular cancer. I'm donating my top lip to the cause for 30 days in an effort to help change the face of men's health. My Mo will spark conversations, and no doubt generate some laughs; all in the name of raising vital awareness and funds for cancer's affecting men. Why am I so passionate about men's health? * 1 in 9 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime * This year 37,000 new cases of the disease will be diagnosed * 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime * 26% of men are less likely to go the doctor compared to women I'm asking you to support my Movember campaign by making a donation by either: *Donating online at: http://mobro.co/TheOpsMgr *If you want to go old school you can write a cheque payable to 'Movember', reference my na...
