Optimizing Web Performance with AOL Pagetest
Jul ‘08 10
In this screencast, I walk through how to analyze your site using the reports generated by AOL Pagetest, and explain why and how to go about addressing your pressing performance issues. Come for the tool demo, and stay to learn about the anatomy of an HTTP request, the importance of CDN’s and keep-alives, and a handy Apache module to concatenate CSS and JavaScript. Leave me feedback so I can improve it, and enjoy!
