Hmm, didn't know that was there, quite handy. It does seem to contradict what we know though. For example, it says the total amount of images is only 7.33KB we already know that one of them is 170KB. How reliable is this then? -- Andy Hewitt <http://web.me.com/andrewhewitt1/>

As a first step, as poeple have mentioned here, it might be worth simply converting the graphics on the first page to jpegs. It does take an astoundingly long time to load, even on ADSL- it was one of the first things I noticed. -- Peter

Mine says they are huge and the JavaScript is bigger! Yep, clicking on the Size graph for the front page (Churches/Welcome.html?) shows 17.66K for Documents, 7.75KB for Stylesheets, 426.84KB for Images, 229.71KB for Scripts, 2.39KB for XHR (looks like /Churches/feed.xml). -- Chris |
