(3.5) Probably 30-50% good stuff here, and that stuff looks pretty good

Won this at a meetup raffle. I'll probably re-read this and take some notes. Probably just better to keep more up-to-date with the perf calendar: http://calendar.perfplanet.com/2012/ (where the book's content comes from)

Kind of makes me want to hire someone into a full-time front-end performance role....

Essendo una raccolta di articoli apparsi su blog e siti web, ha pregi e difetti. Diversi articoli sono molto interessanti e ben scritti, ma purtroppo altri sono poco dettagliati, o presi fuori contesto, e in generale poco utili.

Per lo stesso motivo non c'è una progressione logica, e il libro salta da un argomento all'altro per poi magari tornarci in un articolo successivo.

Non cercate il volume 1 come ho fatto io. Non esiste.

This book is a disjointed collection of articles. Many of the articles are good, but it doesn't seem like there is a thread tying them together. I enjoy compilation and recipe books, but I can't help but think that one could have just grabbed these from all over the web and been done with it.

Книга представляет собой сборник статей от разных авторов. Практически все посвящены метрикам и совсем немного о самой оптимизации. Может быть обо всем уже давно рассказано?

A very nice set of links for the further reading

Good at the time, but mostly stale at this point.
