High Performance Web Sites: Essential Knowledge for Front-End Engineers
by Steve Souders
That's a nice dog on the cover. This is the same author behind the YSlow firefox extension, which is a very useful tool on the subject. Thanks for the heads up on this book Mike.

This book provides 14 ways to speed up how a page renders itself in a browser. Many of the techniques presented are trivial to implement, and most of them have little in the way of significant drawbacks. As code optimization is often an exercise in fabricating a sufficient complexity of rope in order to hang one's self, it was refreshing to find simple means of improving performance.
At less than 150 pages High Performance Web Sites leaves little reason to ignore looking into this subject if you are a web developer.
