Developer website is slow

[tsteur]

Just opened the website and noticed the website is pretty slow. It takes over 4s to load and the JS and font files are never cached. The site used to load in under 500ms. It's also a bit annoying since sometimes some content is there but it takes 2 or 3 more seconds until the titles are rendered (because they use a custom font now). My internet connection is 2Mbit/s, testing with Chrome.

JS and fonts should be loaded from cache, ideally they would be loaded async.

My new version(#200) is about the same size (170kb gziped for /integration), but as the CSS and JS are concated in three files it seems to load faster.
Without cache it takes about 6 seconds to display content and 9 seconds until it has finished loading with slow 3g

The chrome lighthouse report show the following with 562.5ms RTT, 1.4Mbps down, 0.7Mbps up:

CSS and JS can definitly be cache for some time as they have the git commit in the querystring.

Maybe only the needed parts of the bootstrap js could be included to further speed it up. The largest part is the font-awesome webfont, but it shouldn't delay rendering.

until the titles are rendered (because they use a custom font now).

As the site isn't using webfonts anymore this should definitely have improved.

Do you have any more ideas for improving the speed?

I think it mainly was slow that time because of the custom fonts we used but replaced them a while ago with native fonts which made it much faster.

but as the CSS and JS are concated in three files it seems to load faster.

This is great.

No more ideas for improving the speed, well done 👍
