  58. ©2016 AKAMAI | FASTER FORWARDTM Sprite Summary 1. Keep using

    sprites for performance 2. If you are only using a few images files are ok 3. Think about management 4. Think about frequency of change 5. Mobile decoding times can be slow
  59. ©2016 AKAMAI | FASTER FORWARDTM Summary: Anti-patterns aren’t anti-patterns 1.

    Keep combining files 2. Check rendering times carefully 3. Keep using sprites (if you use enough images) 4. If you have to shard reuse the same connection 5. Make sure critical content is on the same domain
