Hi, So I touch'ed prototype-compressed.js (to get rid of the 403) and we get:
[0] GET /startpage/scripts/prototype-compressed.js HTTP/1.1 [0] Remote-IP: 75.71.75.22:3697 [0] User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6 [0] Accept: */* [0] Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 [0] Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate [0] Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 [0] Keep-Alive: 300 [0] Connection: keep-alive [0] If-Modified-Since: Wed, 15 Aug 2007 21:22:02 GMT [0] If-None-Match: "831XFs4IZoh" [0] Cache-Control: max-age=0 [0] HTTP/1.1 200 OK [0] ETag: "8UCDSWLScH5" [0] Last-Modified: Fri, 24 Aug 2007 01:28:45 GMT [0] Accept-Ranges: bytes [0] Cache-Control: max-age=5 [0] Expires: Fri, 24 Aug 2007 01:28:57 GMT [0] Content-Type: application/x-javascript [0] Content-Length: 52498 [0] write-chunk(16384) AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] create db-block remove AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] create db-block remove AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] [0] write-chunk(16384) AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] create db-block remove AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] create db-block remove AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] [0] write-chunk(16384) AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] create db-block remove AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] create db-block remove AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] create db-block remove AutoCommitWriteBlock[Store[2],2] caching: /startpage/scripts/prototype-compressed.js etag="8UCDSWLScH5" length=52498 [0] keepalive [0] keepalive (select) The 'write-chunk(16284)' looks like it is trying to do something - but FireBug and that website that sends HEAD instead of GET both report 53K. If someone can convince me that FireBug is just plain wrong (tho it correctly reports on Windows XP) ... OK. Maybe FireBug et. al. ARE wrong. I opened a fresh FireFox window over dialup and it took 27 seconds (a page refresh then took 2 seconds) , 1/3 the time that the websiteoptimization.com site said it should and 1/2 the time a back-of-the-envelope calculation indicated. And given that the JS is most of the bytes going over the line, I now think that it IS being compressed but incorrectly reported on. So, uh, I will continue to investigate, but I am afraid I have bothered everybody needlessly. Thanks for your help! Mike. _______________________________________________ resin-interest mailing list resin-interest@caucho.com http://maillist.caucho.com/mailman/listinfo/resin-interest
