Mohit: >Are you trying to reduce the 150KB or the 800ms? I assume we're going to hopefully improve by reducing the 150kb but I'd still like to proportionally decrease the load time if at all possible.
> change the page caching time to a much larger value compared to the default 5 minutes if your pages can manage it. Yes, I'm looking in to this. I'm almost positive we're just using the default. I agree that this may help a LOT! Does someone have a working example of setting: ResponseCache.defaults[:expire_time] or whatever? That would be very helpful. John & Mohit: > make sure you are not serving css and/or js from radiant I have my styles and js in <RADIANT_ROOT>/public/stylesheet ..../javascripts respectively. Is that correct? It's my understanding that Apache will serve anything under /public right? > make sure you have mod_deflate setup up to compress all text files Yeah, I need to look into this! I do see it listed mod_deflate.so in our modules directory but I have to see if it's been properly loaded, etc. Thanks. > page parts Well we are using layouts, snippets, parts, etc., pretty heavily. Is this specific to page parts or are snippets, layouts, etc., also hot spots? Here's the live site: http://www.snaplogic.com/ Thanks for the great help all!
