RE: Possible changes to grading
Two things I would like to add Re: JS/CSS:
First, combining these two, when they are up there in the rendering path, is a huge, and sometimes simple, gain. Our former site would probably very well serve as "Worst practice example", like the "CNN in JS/CSS concatenation". We had, when this portal moved under my responsibility, something like 30 CSS'es and 15 JS'es in the HEAD. And the impact IS huge. So I still would see it as main grade. Second, we have different behaviour on at least IE7 and IE8, regarding JS in the body of the basepage included via Script-Tag. I wrote something about my observence in my blog. The point is: I get different grades on this one if I test the page with IE7 compared to when tested with IE8. And that is somehow confusing. (IE8 engine seems to look ahead and pull the download of JS external Scripts in the body ahead, which results in a worse grade) I am a little bit hesitating, taking it of the main grades (As important as I think this still is), because a valid algorithm for this beast to evaluate from the top of our heads doesn't seem too obvious yet. Kind regards, Markus P.S.: @Pat: Just watched the Lightning Demo Video of yours on Velocity in front of my Laptop together with Volker Hochstein. Felt like home :-) And hats off for all the new stuff. |
