Eliminating extra page?

Permalink
Hi,
My site seemed to be running very slowly, so I used websiteoptimization.com to evaluate it. What was taking up the most space was a page of script that doesn't appear to have any use. Is there a way to delete it? Or is there hidden use?

See page:

Thanks!

Hi there,

That's the concrete5 copy of jquery, if you delete that more or less everything will stop working, Concrete5 relies on jquery.js for a huge chunk of its functionality.

Ah, I was wondering if there was such a purpose.
Is it possible to compress it?

Hi There,

That is the compressed one :) this is the un-compressed onehttp://goo.gl/uJlLpz (v1.10.2) although this is newer than the one Concrete5 uses, they are of a similar size.

Okay, helpful to know.
I asked simply because the report stated that "Up to 60820 bytes could have been saved through compression" for that specific page.

Thanks for the insight.

Yer that's something you are not going to do much about, there are some other changes you can make to help speed up C5, might be an idea to check out miser, it's a c5 optimiser, might help you out some

http://sourceforge.net/projects/miser/...

To find out a bit more search for Miser in the forums here and you will get plenty of info.
