Think web performance is all about load balancing, database indexes, and memory management? Think again. Recent research shows that 80-90% of the end-user response time is spent on the front-end.
The way you develop your site's HTML, CSS, and JavaScript makes a big impact on how long it takes your site to load. But, speeding up your site doesn't have to mean throwing out best practices. Chris Griego ( http://www.boldpx.com/ ) will show you the guidelines and techniques to combine performance with a solid front-end architecture.
Blake Elshire will present a case study for Marblehead's site ( http://www.marbleheadllc.com/ ), showing the benefits of implementing these changes. Also, a new tool will be demoed that helps automate some of these guidelines.
