“Don’t make me wait” – slides from my eBay tech talk
Here are the slides from a tech talk I gave at eBay last week, I called it "Don't make me wait! or how to build high-performance web apps", inspired by, you guessed it, the excellent book "Don't make me think" by Steve Krug.
There's some intimate details on YSlow's scoring algo towards the end and some stuff on progressive rendering and chunked encoding.
Thanks very much to the folks who attended the talk and thanks to eBay for organizing this brownbag. And thanks for the gifts!

Thanks for sharing the slides. As always, very instructive.
I’ve got just one question about flushing earlier. I don’t manage to get this work (and I think a lot of people don’t), could you make a post about that?
It’s easy on paper, just adding flush(), but inreality it’s more complex. Even in Steve Souders’ new book, it’s well explained in theory but not in practice.

Great presentation. Couldn’t you can simply automate this process with some optimization software like aptimize?

Awesome blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
A design like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog stand out.
Please let me know where you got your design.
Cheers
