Mostly we check gtmatrix for forum/website performance,
and yes i know we need to be manually done lot to optimize but atleast we can add few options so we can do optimize in acp itself

http://gtmetrix.com/reports/mybb.com/TWlgTpux
so we need seperate buttons to optimize like gtmatrix or improve gtmatrix report like thing or "optimize site for better"

Note:
it automatically check and create gtmatrix report and show us how to improve in ACP, with just a few checkboxes, clicking check boxes is enough to optimize Smile but coding/integrating checkbox is matters

Google check every site page speed and give penality for slow sites Sad
I think this is best left to third party sites who specialise in web optimising. As the web and standards/browsers/etc. change, some tests can become less relevant.

We make forum software. If you are interested in seeing how fast your website is and trying to improve on that, there are plenty of services out there to help you. MyBB shouldn't waste its time.
Car designer/manufacturer know better than just painter/external mechanic

just like that, i thought mybb creators know about where to tilt and where to leave, that's why i asked.

even a small simple step for optimization from mybb creators will give big intrest to others (just my opinion)


Offtopic (not to hurt)
if mybb creators doesn't optimize or without focus on optimization (increase the % on gtmetrix) than how others concentrate.....??


why i am suggesting more is, because i Heart mybb
I agree that mybb needs to have some optimisation, but you have to see that there are many different users of a forum software - to each of those people things are more or less important.

Regarding optimising - there are many things you can choose to do yourself; different approaches work in different situations. For example, you can just concatenate ALL your js into one big script. So that is only one http request. Of course, depending on how much js you have you then have an enormous blob of javascript to load, which will slow your page.

I like the way mybb is set up - I can choose what to load/concatenate/combine and when and with some server side caching then you can get good speeds.

Finally, you have to take the "scores" from these page analysers with a pinch of salt. There is always variation in those services. I get 96 on my page score for index from google page speed; the same page gets 82 with YSlow.
