Web site frontend performance

This week I presented at DevDays09 the session WUX303 – Optimização de Performance de Web Sites. This session had great feedback. It was ranked number 7 of the overall 75 sessions of the event.

It was an overview of the book “High Performance Web Sites” by Steve Souders. I presented the 14 rules and showed some demos and tools that help on optimizing your website.

Here are some of the tools I used:

• YSlow
• IBM Page Detailer
• Microsoft Visual Round Trip Analyser
• Hammerhead
• Cuzzilion
• Performance Webpage Test (Online)
• Fiddler2

Here are the slides of the presentation and the demos.
