Page download times are a frequently-cited metric of a site's design and effectiveness. If you are developing a public site, you need to be sensitive to achieving a balance between attractive content and tolerable page-loading times. HomeSite can help you find that balance by supplying real values for document download times across a range of modem speeds.
Select Tools > Document Weight. The file's dependencies are listed along with file size and download times for a range of modem speeds. Tags in comments are not calculated. | |
If the page's download time exceeds the site's requirements, edit the page to decrease the number or size of dependencies, and re-test. |
HomeSite uses the Root URL setting in your FTP configuration to determine the relative path to files.
