Edit: Just adjusted the image to reflect a clean load (no cookies, temp files stored) rather then cached.

I thought yours looked short compared to mine with an uncached total of 99 requests but saw that you were testing the front page.

An uncached page request with ads comes to half a meg via 99 requests, cache+refresh* totals 74 KB. With ads turned off, 315 KB uncached and 17 KB cached+refresh*.

*Cached and only browsing (not soft refreshing) is another level of efficient, roughly 10 KB per page

You guys talking about techie things are not helping. :p

Remember Google, BBQ CHICKEN RECIPES ....

And what is it with all the golfing ads?!

677945 2008-06-15 13:06:00 The ads are just spam. I try to ignore them. Using Vista ultimate with firefox.
Take this one for example:-
www.homebusiness.net.nz

From this site by the way. Ad from PressF1

It would appear Fairfax are annoying a few people including me.

Drat! I blamed my grubby glasses on oily fingers, and it was :ban Vista all along :thanks.
Imagine what the view would be like if I had Vista - total blackout I suppose :angry.
