Catching up on performance with the SitePen crew, published on Friday, 04 July 2008 5:07AMThere’s been so much going on in the performance space lately that I’ve been snowed under. It’s difficult to know where to begin chronicling all of the progress. I’ll start with a few updates from Sitepen. Back in April, Kris Zyp had a great article for IBM developerWorks called Ajax performance analysis. The developerWorks crew [...]

Client side performance testing has arrived, published on Wednesday, 25 June 2008 4:54AMHot on the heels of yesterday’s discussion of Jiffy come a few unrelated notes involving client side performance testing. It looks like this approach is finally gathering the mindshare it deserves, and it’s really cool to see all the effort going into developing these solutions. The first is a fairly basic client side performance tracker [...]

At the Velocity Conference, published on Monday, 23 June 2008 3:13PMI’m at the O’Reilly Velocity Conference in San Francisco today and will be sitting on a panel with Bill Scott, Ernest Mueller, and Scott Ruthfield. Steve Souders is moderating. Bill is kicking off the show with something really exciting — the Jiffy plugin for Firebug. Jiffy relies on Scott Ruthfield’s Jiffy-Web open source analysis suite [...]

Upcoming Webinar, published on Tuesday, 27 May 2008 3:35PMI’m doing a Webinar Thursday with Bob Buffone of Rock Star Apps and Nexaweb. I’ve never done a joint webinar before, so it should be a lot of fun. 2 hours of Ajax/RIA performance discussions — what could be better? Bob’s blog has more details on how to sign up. It’s free, of course.

Crowdsourcing mobile browser technical details, published on Thursday, 01 May 2008 3:57AMI’m fascinated by cases where seemingly banal technical details become precious commodities because very few have expended the time and energy necessary to document them. One good example is mobile browser connection profiles — there are thousands of combinations of mobile device and browser software, and each has its own particular connection limits and concurrency [...]

More about native selector functionality, published on Thursday, 01 May 2008 3:47AMI’ve talked before about the recent move by browser vendors to implement the Selectors API. There is potential for significant performance benefits from moving this code into the browser, but there is risk as well. If the provided functionality is buggy (as history tells us it must be), libraries will need to patch around these [...]

Cuzillion: simplifying page prototyping, published on Wednesday, 30 April 2008 3:22AMTesting new arrangements of DOM elements to improve the object load order or parallelism can be a bit of a cumbersome task. Fire up a text editor, create a test page with a meaningful name, hit with different browsers, and repeat a few hundred times. As an exemplar of the old aphorism that good programmers [...]

On spam and comments, published on Friday, 25 April 2008 1:36AMSince switching to Google hosting for my personal e-mail, all of my WordPress ‘comments pending approval’ e-mails have been silently going to my spam folder. I just finished digging through the 4000 messages that queued up. Damn comment spam. Apologies to those whose comments were delayed. I’ve corrected the e-mail issue, and I’ll do a [...]

WebKit Inspector getting some attention from Google’s Summer of Code, published on Monday, 21 April 2008 9:32PMJust a quick piece of news today: assuming I’m reading this correctly, it looks like Webkit Inspector will be the beneficiary of some attention from a student by the name of Keishi Hattori as part of Google’s Summer of Code. Keishi will be “implementing Firebug API and a JavaScript profiler into WebKit,” moving WebKit Inspector [...]
