In conclusion, performance tuning should be considered as an important issue at the early stage of web application project. During the project, performance test cases should be set up and should be kept up-to-date.
In general, there are five ways to improve the performance: the last three ways are suitable for most web applications, the first two are more specific for applications using the Backbase Client Framework:
- Balance out the amount of model nodes/controllers with client-side logic
- Use correct Backbase techniques
- Smaller resource (HTML, JavaScript, XML, CSS) sizes
- Less HTTP requests
- Server-side optimization
