#28384 — Smallest JQuery FIles In The World

SubjectSmallest JQuery FIles In The World
Message-ID<1935d418-6cfb-4e32-b914-ace16fdc3867@googlegroups.com>
https://github.com/JavaScript-Packer/jquery-bzip-compressed is a collection of JQuery files that have been compressed to bzip2 and made client side extractable by adding an unpacker made in pure JavaScript. They were created on www.whak.ca/packer/JavaScript.htm where you can compress your own JS stuff. Many (most) of these JQuery files are half the size (or smaller) than any other samples, even half the size of the "min" versions on JQuery.com

If google used these files, they would save terrabytes of data.

There is an embedded sample there (HTM file), it gives best performance as no external files need to be called, less files to look for, etc.

And if I used gzip I wouldn't need a library at all and the page would load even faster since I wouldn't have to load it. 

Not to mention compression and decompression is faster with gzip than bzip. 

Shrinking a file to the smallest possible is not a win when the time to compress/decompress eats up the savings you might have gained from download speed.

You can't gzip a file and just use it anywhere, needs a server set up with gzip (most free hosting places do not have, over half of web sites do not have this. Also, it makes more work on your server to decompress the file for half of your clients. The time saved from downloading out weighs the 50 milliseconds to decompress (thats as fast as a eye blink, OMG, the wait) one of those jquery files

Provide some statistics for this. You are exaggerating to say the least. The last I've seen are ~15% and that is from 2009 [1]

> Also, it makes more work on your server to decompress the file for half of your clients.

Disregarding your "half" comment, why would you ever want to decompress the file on the fly from the server?

> The time saved from downloading out weighs the 50 milliseconds to decompress (thats as fast as a eye blink, OMG, the wait) one of those jquery files

bzip2 is still a poor decision [2]

Those I can use even on Google's blogspot.com blog hosting, lets see you do that with your gzipped jquery files. Here is a bzipped jquery running on jsfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/nk6Lryos/ , lets see you do that with your plain zipped file

You're missing the point completely. The point is that you chose a poor compression algorithm and also exaggerate the scale of the problem.

If I wished to hack around an inability of a server to send compressed textual content and/or a client to accept it, I would probably use the referenced approach(s) and leverage more of the browser platform instead of loading yet another library. [1][2]

https://github.com/JavaScript-Packer/jquery-bzip-compressed  are good for standalone cell phone apps or web pages you want to run offline. How you gonna do that with just a gzipped file without client side decompression?

False accusations will not help your cause. If my JavaScript is wrong and that speed test page only has JavaScript in it, is it magic then that loads www.whak.ca/speed-test.htm?

CLient side compression is useful for places without server side compression like blogs, cell phone applications, free hosting spots, standalone web page applications in HTML5 and more.

Tools to create your own client side compressed files:
www.whak.ca/packer/JavaScript.htm
www.whak.ca/packer/HTML.htm
www.whak.ca/packer/CSS.htm
www.whak.ca/packer/PNG.htm

You could try actually looking at one of the solutions I've already provided. I know they don't have many pretty pictures, but try your best.

Simply not using jQuery costs around 0 bytes.

You won't find one of my pages using JQuery on www.ScriptCompress.com or other sites I own. I am a programmer, I use pure JavaScript.
