Have you done some comparisons including scriptmanager composite script?

I implemented an altscriptmanager composite script on a client site where I used jQuery in place of Microsoft AJAX as the framework. Thus all of the scripts were combined into one script in the order I set and was cachable.

Had I used the Microsoft AJAX framework instead, I could have had automatic minifying built in but I was already using jQuery and did not want Microsoft AJAX to cause any issues as well as weight.

I’m curious if any of your techniques could improve page load even more.

I was curious why don’t use Firebug? Their waterfall chart seems decent…

I also use Fiddler2′s chart in IE.

Is the presentation been recorded? I searched for the video in the Goog, did not find it. I liked the ppt though :)

Thx, good presentation. But I think there should be more practical material about live coupling tree of external scripts and inlide code.

That was IBM Page Detailer. Since they stopped selling the pro version, I now use HttpWatch from Simtec.

Thanks Steve! I really enjoyed your sxsw talk. I’m curious of the app/plugin in your presentation – the one with the icons next to the page requests. Is this something publicly available?
