Kind of funny how the solution for making Rails faster is offloaded to the client side.
- wycats 17y agoHow did you read that into what I wrote? According to Steve Souders (YSlow), 80% of the time spent waiting for a page to load happens on the client. Rails makes it really easy to cut down significantly on that time. The question of server-side performance is entirely orthogonal (and not actually a "problem" for Rails at all; Rails provides significant server-side performance tools as well).
- technoweenie 17y agoRails is still just as slow as it ever was. According to YDN Best Practices (http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/rules.html http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/rules.html), 80% of response time is spent on the front end. These techniques are for implementing common best practices (as measured by YSlow) that every site should follow.
