Front-end tuning: downloading javascript files in paralell

I was looking for frontend tuning for faster page load. I found some very good technics, almost all already improved by drupal, but I can't figure out how to load javascripts in the button of the page. As you can see Javascript is loaded on the top of each page, while that happens page loading is blocked to other things like loading images,flash and also cause a gap while processing that code and restart loading the rest of the page...

I think these urls are good guides for improving front-end performance:

Full Code Press Event - Aussie Team used Drupal

Hi everyone,

Just thought I would let you know about an event I participated in last weekend called Full Code Press, where an Australian and NZ team built a site in 24 hours for 2 charities.

I was on the Aussie team, and we used Drupal as our CMS. We didn't win, but it was a great experience.

I have posted some of my thoughts here.
