Want to make your Wordpress blog go fast and score high on Y-slow…obvious answer right? here is what you need to do.

Author: Christian “Schepp” Schaefer

CSS-JS-Booster is a PHP-script that tries to automate as many performance optimizing steps related to CSS and JS embedding as possible. Depending on the amount of CSS, CSS-images and JS, this can significantly increase loading speed of your site. Your YSlow-score will go through the roof! (around 91/100 – 95/100)

For CSS optimization steps are:

• combine multiple CSS-files resulting in HTTP-requests going down
• optimize and minify CSS with CSSTidy
• Embed any CSS-images smaller 24KB as data-URI or MHTML (for IE <= 7)
• GZIP-compress the resulting CSS
• Have browsers cache the result as long as it remains unchanged
• If IE6: Issue a JS-command to fix background image caching behaviour

For JS optimization steps are:

• combine multiple JS-files resulting in HTTP-requests going down
• GZIP-compress the resulting JS
• Have browsers cache the result as long as it remains unchanged

Well what are waiting for DL here
