The load time has been optimized
Posted: Mon Dec 13, 2010 2:18 am
From the start of the forum I was finding a solution to cache the javascripts as long as possible in the memory of the browser, because the main element of our forum is equation, and we use javascripts to load the equations. From now on the javascripts (about 150 kb) will be cached in the browser of the user, so the browser will only download some text (and some images in some cases). This will guarantee the load time to be $\leq 10$ secs. (in most cases 1-5 secs depending on your net speed)
I used Apache mod_expires and edited .htaccess to do this.
I have also enabled gzip compression that will further compress the texts, and decrease load time drastically.
Cheers!
BTW for better web experience in general I would suggest everyone to install faster fox addon on their firefox browser.
