Ok, thanks. The load-time performance for my app is excellent at the
moment. But if responses from the servers start to get sluggish again,
I may try what you suggest, even though I also want my index page to
load lightning-fast, even when the users come in with an empty browser
cache. Even calls to the datastore seem to be much faster nowadays
than some months ago. Very good. Now I may 'only' need to generate a
massive amount of traffic to my site. Peace of cake. Not! :D
