15 page speed optimizations that sites ignore (at their own risk)

A recent analysis of twenty leading websites found a surprising number of page speed optimizations that sites are not taking advantage of – to the detriment of their performance metrics, and more importantly, to the detriment of their users and ultimately their business. I spend a lot of time looking at waterfall charts and web performance audits.
