<p>But since you&#8217;re here, I&#8217;d like to talk about some of the small stuff I sweated while writing this book.
<p>The online edition loads as quickly as it does because
<ol>
<li>HTML is <a href=http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_deflate.html>compressed</a>.
<li>Scripts and stylesheets are minimized by <a href=http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/compressor/>YUI Compressor</a>.
<li>Scripts are combined to reduce HTTP requests.
<li>Stylesheets are combined and inlined to reduce HTTP requests.
<li>Unused CSS selectors and properties are <a href=http://hg.diveintopython3.org/file/default/util/lesscss.py>removed on a page-by-page basis</a> with <a href=http://pyquery.org/>pyquery</a>.
<li>HTTP caching and other server-side options are optimized based on advice from <a href=http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/>YSlow</a> and <a href=http://code.google.com/speed/page-speed/>Page Speed</a>.
<li>The text uses <a href=http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/unicode_samples.html>Unicode characters</a> in place of graphics wherever possible.
<li>The entire book was <a href=http://diveintomark.org/archives/2009/03/27/dive-into-history-2009-edition>lovingly hand-authored in HTML 5</a> to avoid markup cruft.
