Update: Summary of Homepage Hall of Shame 1 month on..
Friday, June 13th, 2008In the latest in the speeding up NZ Internet series, I’ve just finished retesting the web performance of top 75 NZ homepages. I’m in the processing of processing all of the results and generating the tables.
I’ve capture more data to include DSL download time, caching stats of the pages and total number of HTTP requests.
One month on here are the key stats:
Averages:
- 305.1K for the Homepage size (Up from 304.9K)
- 50 secs for estimated download time for dialup.
- 6.81 secs for download time on DSL
- 56 HTTP requests / files per page
- 20% of the homepage in size is cached. (Indicating bad caching)
- 76% of HTTP request are rechecked against cache (Indicating bad caching)
- 53.8 Yslow score
Other stats:
- 49% of websites use no web compression
- Only two sites have homepages over 1000K
- Top YSlow site has rating of 85
- Worst YSlow has a rating of 29
I’ll post the complete findings shortly.
