Title: Google releases Page Speed addon for Firebug
Post by: Gena01 on June 04, 2009, 09:28:21 pm
Today Google officially announced and released a new Firefox/Firebug addon called Page Speed. When I saw the announcement I was curious and yet perplexed. It definitely sounded like a YSlow like plugin. After installing and playing with it for a bit I do have to say that it's trying to do something similar with a different perspective. It has it's own set of rules and adds some unique features. I do recommend you install this one along with YSlow.

See the full announcement here: http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/06/introducing-page-speed.html

P.S. One interesting point is that the above page gets quite a few "moderate" grade recommendations in order to improve performance.
