Over on the YUI Blog, Tenni Theurer has just posted part 1 in a series sharing what we’ve found by researching web site optimization. At conferences over the last six months I’ve given hints about some of our research findings, and told you there were more to come, and so I’m especially happy to finally have something to show. The #1 rule of better performance is to reduce HTTP requests. We’ll talk about how and why in future posts, but for now head over and read her first installment:
Performance Research, Part 1: What the 80/20 Rule Tells Us about Reducing HTTP Requests

Hey Nate, thanks for posting. Your and Doug’s talks at the Ajax Experience in Boston very much got me thinking along these lines, so I have to send it back towards the work you guys are doing at Yahoo! — thanks for spreading the word. You’re definitely leading the charge on making the UI layer prime time stuff, which I appreciate enormously.
By the way, I really did enjoy your talks. You might remember me as the guy lingering with my laptop at the end of your second presentation while you were talking to the fellow from AOL. Just sorry I didn’t make it to Refresh 06. Oh well.
Firebug 1.0 is exceptional. I’ve had tons of fun playing with it. I’m sure if you asked Joe Hewitt nicely, he’d probably let you in. :-)
