Google’s New Speed Tool Makes Websites Run with Blazing Speed

Posted by on October 1, 2011 8 comments

Google initiatives towards making the Web faster are setting new dimensions now. Google latest release, A free software that could make many sites load twice as fast, is one such result.

Web performance is a primary issue today. Increasing the speed of a web page, whether by serving less bytes -through better compression or caching-, minimizing round-trips and optimizing the order of resource download for the browser as some ways to achieve high performance.

The software is known as mod_pagespeed is an open-source Apache module that automatically optimizes web pages and resources to improve the performance of their web pages when serving content with the Apache HTTP Server. The software will be automatically updated.

It includes filters for optimizing JPEG and PNG images & also  optimizes JavaScript, HTML and CSS stylesheets.

Google already offers a tool called Page Speed that measures the speed at which a website loads and suggests ways to make improvements.

Supported platforms

  • CentOS/Fedora (32-bit and 64-bit)
  • Debian/Ubuntu (32-bit and 64-bit)
  • Apache 2.2

Installation

Installing mod_pagespeed will add the Google repository so your system will automatically keep mod_pagespeed up to date. More on Installation[...]

To install the packages, on Debian/Ubuntu, please run (as root) the following command:

dpkg -i mod-pagespeed-*.deb
apt-get -f install

For CentOS/Fedora, please execute (also as root):

yum install at  (if you do not already have 'at' installed)
rpm -i mod-pagespeed-*.rpm

Where it can be used?

Performing on-the-fly optimization in the Apache™ 2 HTTP Server, it can help:

  • Webmasters
  • Companies using content management systems.
  • Web developers

“We think making the whole Web faster is critical to Google’s success,” says Rabbat, Product Manager for the new project.

Google tested mod_pagespeed on a representative sample of websites and found that it made some sites load three times faster, depending on how much optimization had already been done.

With the arrival of Google Nexus, the Mobile market is like to be a Mobile battleground & the most of the gadget websites are flooded with reviews of Google Nexus. But such gadget nerdy long reviews are hard to read & look on the key aspects in this time efficient world.

So, I have come up with the compares the top three status-phones: Nexus, Droid and iPhone which will tell you which one to buy when you’re done comparing.

Now I am not going with republishing anything that has been already done on the web, but thanks to chart from BillShrink comparing the phone’s features and costs.

Which one should you buy?

As the smartphone wars continue to heat up the Nexus One is entering a marketplace that is currently dominated by the iPhone 3GS with and gaining popularity of the Droid by Verizon Wireless.

Get the Droid(says MobileBeat). You have work to do. Droid’s physical keyboard lets you type much faster than the touchscreens on the iPhone and Nexus One. It’s almost — almost — as good as a BlackBerry for text and email.

Nexus One vs. iPhone vs. Droid vs. Palm Pre

So, what do you think? Is the Comparison solved your confusions?

Which SmartPhone you would like to buy from Nexus One, Droid, or iPhone?
