Praise for High Performance Web Sites
"If everyone would implement just 20% of Steve's guidelines, the Web would be a dramatically better place. Between this book and Steve's YSlow extension, there's really no excuse for having a sluggish web site anymore."
—Joe Hewitt, Developer of Firebug debugger and Mozilla's DOM
Inspector
"Steve Souders has done a fantastic job of distilling a massive, semi-arcane art down to a set of concise, actionable, pragmatic engineering steps that will change the world of web performance."
—Eric Lawrence, Developer of the Fiddler Web Debugger,
Microsoft Corporation
"As the stress and performance test lead for Zillow.com, I have been talking to all of the developers and operations folks to get them on board with the rules Steve outlined in this book, and they all ask how they can get a hold of this book. I think this should be a mandatory read for all new UE developers and performance engineers here."
—Nate Moch, www.zillow.com
"High Performance Web Sites is an essential guide for every web developer. Steve offers straightforward, useful advice for making virtually any site noticeably faster."
—Tony Chor, Group Program Manager, Internet Explorer team,
