Sitefinity Performance - Minimizing loaded ScriptResources

Question

I am trying to make a Sitefinity site run faster by minizing the requests sent to the server especially the amount of ScriptResource.axd files loaded in the page.

Is these files are all required to be loaded for a fairly simple Sitefinity page?

How can we minimize or even combine these scripts to improve performance?

Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

regards,

Joseph

One way to make it run faster is by enabling the Client Cache mode from Sitefinity's settings.

You go to Administration->Settings->Advanced->System->Output cache settings then you check the 'Enable Client Cache' check box.

If the "Default Output Cache Profile" on the same section is set to "Standard Caching" then you can go two levels deeper in the settings tree to "Client Cache Profile-> Standard Caching" and set the the expiring time duration in seconds in "Duration" field.

Hope this helps.
