Optimizing resource usage

How to optimize resource usage in LiveWhale.

LiveWhale incorporates a built-in script and stylesheet minifier/concatenator/compressor. If your web page includes a series of scripts or stylesheets, they will be automatically combined into a single, small, cached resource to reduce server load. Certain types of resources that should not be aggregated in this fashion will be automatically excluded.

This feature is enabled automatically by default, according to the ENABLE_RO flag in the master LiveWhale config. It requires no additional configuration.

Note: Command-line Java should be present in order to take full advantage of LiveWhale’s script/css minimization features. If it is not present, minimization will simply not take place.
