New Domains Pointed to Newest Industry
In: Browsers| Internet| Web Performance| Web analytics| WebPerformance.Org
17 Mar 2009For a number of years, I have owned three very popular domain names: WebPerformance.org, WebCaching.org, and WebCompression.org. Last night, after many days of consideration, I stopped pointing them at their own distinct Web space and pointed them at this blog.
This is not a bad or evil thing, considering that for at least 18 months, the [...]

GrabPERF: What and Why
1 Dec 2008Why GrabPERF?
About four years ago, I had a bright idea that I would like to learn more about how to build and scale a small Web performance measurement platform. I’ve worked in the Web performance industry for nearly a decade now, and this was an experimental platform for me to examine and encounter many of [...]
Hit Tracking with PHP and MySQL
In: Browsers| Technology| The Web
3 Sep 2008Recently there was an outage at a hit-tracking vendor I was using to track the hits on my externally hosted blog, leaving me with a gap in my visitor data several hours long.

mon.itor.us Outage
In: GrabPERF| Web Performance
5 Nov 2007mon.itor.us, a service which also provides free Web performance measurement services, appears to be having a wee problem.
The most recent GrabPERF data on this site is available here. The issue may be corrected by the time you look at the data.
I don’t wish suffering like this on anyone. GrabPERF had it’s own 3-4 day outage [...]

GrabPERF: Content! Watch your content!
In: GrabPERF
9 Aug 2007Last night, I got motivated.
Ok, I got manic. Goes with my life.
As a part of that mania, I had a breakthrough on how to present GrabPERF data that I’ve actually been collecting for nearly a year: text match failures.

GrabPERF: Substantial Navigation Changes
4 Aug 2007If you use GrabPERF on a regular basis, the somewhat flaky navigation method has become second nature to you. In fact, to circumvent some of the idiosyncrasies, you have probably bookmarked your favourite pages.
Yesterday, I broke your links.
When I redesigned GrabPERF in February 2006, I had just discover the require function in PHP, and decided [...]
