  1. Even Faster Web Sites(inside ma.tt)best practices for faster pages Steve Souders souders@google.com http://stevesouders.com/docs/wordcamp-20080816.ppt Disclaimer: This content does not necessarily reflect the opinions of my employer.

  2. The Importance of Frontend Performance 9% 91% 17% 83% iGoogle, primed cache iGoogle, empty cache

  3. Time Spent on the Frontend

  4. The Performance Golden Rule 80-90% of the end-user response time is spent on the frontend. Start there. greater potential for improvement simpler proven to work

  5. 14 Rules • Make fewer HTTP requests • Use a CDN • Add an Expires header • Gzip components • Put stylesheets at the top • Put scripts at the bottom • Avoid CSS expressions • Make JS and CSS external • Reduce DNS lookups • Minify JS • Avoid redirects • Remove duplicate scripts • Configure ETags • Make AJAX cacheable

  6. YSlow High Performance Web Sites

  7. http://conferences.oreilly.com/velocity/ June 22-24, 2009

  8. High Performance Web Sites, Vol 2 • Split the initial payload • Load scripts without blocking • Don't scatter inline scripts • Split dominant domains • Make static content cookie-free • Reduce cookie weight • Minify CSS • Optimize images • Use iframes sparingly • To www or not to www

  9. Why focus on JavaScript? Yahoo! Wikipedia eBay AOL MySpace YouTube Facebook

  10. Scripts Block <script src="A.js"> blocks parallel downloads and rendering http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10008 What's "Cuzillion"?

  11. Initial Payload and Execution 26% avg 252K avg

  12. Split the initial payload split your JavaScript between what's needed to render the page and everything else load "everything else" after the page is rendered separate manually (Firebug); tools needed to automate this (Doloto from Microsoft) load scripts without blocking – how?

  13. MSN.com: Parallel Scripts MSN Scripts and other resources downloaded in parallel! How? var p= g.getElementsByTagName("HEAD")[0]; var c=g.createElement("script"); c.type="text/javascript"; c.onreadystatechange=n; c.onerror=c.onload=k; c.src=e; p.appendChild(c)

  14. Advanced Script Loading XHR Eval XHR Injection Script in Iframe Script DOM Element Script Defer document.write Script Tag

  15. XHR Eval varxhrObj = getXHRObject(); xhrObj.onreadystatechange = function() { if ( xhrObj.readyState != 4 ) return; eval(xhrObj.responseText); }; xhrObj.open('GET', 'A.js', true); xhrObj.send(''); script must have same domain as main page must refactor script http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10009

  16. XHR Injection varxhrObj = getXHRObject(); xhrObj.onreadystatechange = function() { if ( xhrObj.readyState != 4 ) return; var se=document.createElement('script'); document.getElementsByTagName('head') [0].appendChild(se); se.text = xhrObj.responseText; }; xhrObj.open('GET', 'A.js', true); xhrObj.send(''); script must have same domain as main page http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10015

  17. Script in Iframe <iframe src='A.html' width=0 height=0 frameborder=0 id=frame1></iframe> • iframe must have same domain as main page • must refactor script: • // access iframe from main page • window.frames[0].createNewDiv(); • // access main page from iframe • parent.document.createElement('div'); http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10012

  18. Script DOM Element var se = document.createElement('script'); se.src = 'http://anydomain.com/A.js'; document.getElementsByTagName('head') [0].appendChild(se); script and main page domains can differ no need to refactor JavaScript http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10010

  19. Script Defer <script defer src='A.js'></script> only supported in IE script and main page domains can differ no need to refactor JavaScript http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10013

  20. document.write Script Tag document.write("<scri" + "ipt type='text/javascript' src='A.js'>" + "</scri" + "ipt>"); parallelization only works in IE parallel downloads for scripts, nothing else all document.writes must be in same script block http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10014

  21. Browser Busy Indicators

  22. Browser Busy Indicators good to show busy indicators when the user needs feedback bad when downloading in the background

  23. Ensure/Avoid Ordered Execution • Ensure scripts execute in order: • necessary when scripts have dependencies • IE: http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10017 • FF: http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10018 • Avoid scripts executing in order: • faster – first script back is executed immediately • http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10019

  24. Summary of Traits *Only other document.write scripts are downloaded in parallel (in the same script block).

  25. and the winner is...

  26. Load Scripts without Blocking don't let scripts block other downloads you can still control execution order, busy indicators, and onload event What about inline scripts?

  27. Inline Scripts after Stylesheets Block Downloading Firefox blocks parallel downloads when downloading stylesheets IE doesn't... ...unless the stylesheet is followed by an inline script http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?ex=10021 best to move inline scripts above stylesheets or below other resources use Link, not @import

  28. Examples of Scattered Scripts MSN Wikipedia eBay MySpace

  29. Don't Scatter Inline Scripts remember inline scripts carry a cost avoid long-executing inline scripts don't put inline scripts between stylesheets and other resources

  30. WordPress Analysis

  31. ma.tt Head Analysis <head> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/style.css?6 ); @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/double-col.css?4 ); </style> [snip...] <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/blog/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6'></script> <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.js'></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.css" /> <script type="text/javascript"> var $j = jQuery.noConflict(); [snip...] </script> </head> @import parallelizes stylesheets in FF avoids script blocking in IE IE FF

  32. ma.tt Head Analysis <head> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/style.css?6 ); @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/double-col.css?4 ); </style> [snip...] <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/blog/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6'></script> <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.js'></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.css" /> <script type="text/javascript"> var $j = jQuery.noConflict(); [snip...] </script> </head> scripts block parallel downloads (except @import in IE) IE FF

  33. ma.tt Head Analysis <head> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/style.css?6 ); @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/double-col.css?4 ); </style> [snip...] <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/blog/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6'></script> <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.js'></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.css" /> <script type="text/javascript"> var $j = jQuery.noConflict(); [snip...] </script> </head> put stylesheets before scripts IE FF

  34. ma.tt Head Analysis <head> <style type="text/css" media="screen"> @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/style.css?6 ); @import url( http://s.ma.tt/blog-content/themes/mahtete/double-col.css?4 ); </style> [snip...] <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/blog/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6'></script> <script type='text/javascript' src='http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.js'></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://s.ma.tt/photos/suggest.css" /> <script type="text/javascript"> var $j = jQuery.noConflict(); [snip...] </script> </head> don't put inline scripts between stylesheets and other resources IE FF

  35. Analyzing All of ma.tt good: • 10 images sprited into 1 • CDN: s.ma.tt (Panther), stats.wordpress.com (Savvis) • expires set 2-5 days in the future • most everything gzipped • most .js minified • ETags configured • parallelized stylesheets fix: • combine scripts (4), combine stylesheets (3) • sprite CSS background images (15) • move scripts to bottom, load non-blocking • shard resources across 2-4 domains • cookieless domain for static content (7K across 30 requests) • move inline script after stylesheet • stylesheet above .js • image height & width

  36. Analyzing All of ma.tt

  37. Analyzing All of ma.tt 26% 12%

  38. Announcement 1: HTTPWatch for FF http://httpwatch.com/ previously IE only Firefox private beta now Firebug 1.05 Net Panel buggy

  39. Announcement 2: Firebug Lite 1.2 http://getfirebug.com/lite.html console.log Inspect DOM and CSS

  40. Announcement 3: Mozilla & Firebug John Resig, Rob Campbell, Jan Odvarko Firebug Working Group stability, performance, bug fixes

  41. Takeaways focus on the frontend run YSlow: http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow this year's focus: JavaScript Split the Initial Payload Load Scripts without Blocking Don't Scatter Inline Scripts speed matters life's too short, write fast code blogs
