Interesting. And it comes after I realized how slow Salesforce was (for my dev account at least).
What would be the things to work on to increase the performance?
The article mentions mostly the size of the files. I also understand that the lower the number of different files is, the better. What else should be taken into account on the front-end?
For example, if I were to use jQuery only for a couple of things, would it be better to have a bigger but simpler JS file? (as in: I rewrite what I need myself but can't match the file size)
- delano 18y agoFront-end performance is a compound problem. You need to consider everything that sits between your customers and your data because it all has an impact on the actual and perceived performance. In regards to browser rendering performance, YSlow is a good place to start: http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/help/. http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/help/. The 13 performance rules is a succinct and accurate list of things to look out for. Steve Souders (creator of YSlow, but now works at Google) does a lot of great work in this area: http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/ http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/ http://stevesouders.com/ua/report.php http://stevesouders.com/ua/report.php http://stevesouders.com/blog/2008/09/30/hammerhead-moving-performance-testing-upstream http://stevesouders.com/blog/2008/09/30/hammerhead-moving-pe...
