basa basi dulu :...Sepulang dari diskusi kecil antara aku dgn sekelompok programmer Point Of Sales yang sama kalangkabut akan launching Senayan City yang issue-nya sedang dalam percepatan Grand Opening plaza tersebut, yakni rencananya Agustus/September jadi bulan depan (Juli 2006).
Btw, terlepas dari persoalan diatas, dan tanpa bermaxud mengomentari perkembangan plaza tersebut, kita malah jadi sedikit "gaduh" soal Fashion dan Function.
Fashion, istilah untuk menyebutkan elemen antarmuka (interface), yg dianggap menarik perhatian pengunjung.
Function, adalah perkara inti dari desain, yg memuat: kegunaan (usable), manfaat (value add), dan keuntungan (profitable) plus kemudahan transfer (portability).
dan? ya!
seperti sudah bisa ditebak diawal, diskusi semacam ini bisa jadi debat yg tak berkesudahan. Karena masing-masing peserta/developer ngotot, bersikukuh dengan teorinya, dan diakui sebagai inovator, trendsetter, accurator, best analist (muluk!!)
ditambah, antara fashion dan function terjadi tumpang-tindih area, artinya kadang fashion merupakan function, dan sebaliknya. pusing!?! `:=|
Kabar baiknya, olok-olok sesama profesi programmer/tekhnisi/desainer ini, lebih terasa sebagai "pembuka cakrawala" dibandingkan diskusi serupa ketika yg dihadapi adalah calon pembeli. --telinga boleh panas, tapi kulkas harus dingin-- wakakaka :)!
hingga sore hari, tidak ada kata bulat, mufakat, atau kompromi. Namun rasanya kita sepakat bahwa kedua unsur tersebut sama penting, satu hal menyangkut harga diri, satu hal lainnya adalah jati diri. hmmmm?
okey, oleh-oleh dari "keributan" tersebut,
relevansi untuk blog, kerana aku adalah salah satu yg lebih menitikberatkan "fashion" daripada "function", aku jadi kepikiran: "apakah
totally blog-site ku masih diambang wajar?" atau dalam bahasa (sok)-tekhnisnya : "apakah beban
appearance cukup imbang dengan
performance?"
hehehe, kita coba yuk !
dengan
sebuah toolkit pengujian beban web ini :
http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/di situ blog-site kamu akan dianalisa, plus ada saran-saran yg aku rasa cukup independen.
sebagai contoh ini adalah analisa blog-site aku (muahahaaaha!) :

* Note that these download times are based on the full connection rate for ISDN and T1 connections. Modem connections (56Kbps or less) are corrected by a packet loss factor of 0.7. All download times include delays due to round-trip latency with an average of 0.2 seconds per object. With 41 total objects for this page, that computes to a total lag time due to latency of 8.2 seconds. Note also that this download time calculation does not take into account delays due to XHTML parsing and rendering.

Congratulations. This site is using
HTTP compression, otherwise called content encoding using gzip. The sizes reported here are for compressed content sent from the server to the client.
* CSS alternate stylesheets may be referenced in the HTML but are not actually downloaded until they are needed and are therefore not included in the total page size.
Analysis and Recommendations
- TOTAL_HTML - Congratulations, the total number of HTML files on this page (including the main HTML file) is 1 which most browsers can multithread. Minimizing HTTP requests is key for web site optimization.
- TOTAL_OBJECTS - Warning! The total number of objects on this page is 41 - consider reducing this to a more reasonable number. Combine, refine, and optimize your external objects. Replace graphic rollovers with CSS rollovers to speed display and minimize HTTP requests.
- TOTAL_IMAGES - Warning! The total number of images on this page is 32 , consider reducing this to a more reasonable number. Combine, refine, and optimize your graphics. Replace graphic rollovers with CSS rollovers to speed display and minimize HTTP requests.
- TOTAL_CSS - Caution. The total number of external CSS files on this page is 4 , consider reducing this to a more reasonable number. Combine, refine, and optimize your external CSS files. Ideally you should have one (or even embed CSS for high-traffic pages) on your pages.
- TOTAL_MULTIM - Congratulations, the total number of external multimedia files on this page is 2 .
- TOTAL_SIZE - Warning! The total size of this page is 189086 bytes, which will load in 38.48 seconds on a 56Kbps modem. Consider reducing total page size to less than 30K to achieve sub eight second response times on 56K connections. Pages over 100K exceed most attention thresholds at 56Kbps, even with feedback. Consider contacting us about our optimization services.
- TOTAL_SCRIPT - Congratulations, the total number of external script files on this page is 2 . External scripts are less reliably cached than CSS files so consider combining scripts into one, or even embedding them into high-traffic pages.
- HTML_SIZE - Congratulations, the total size of this HTML file is 19102 bytes, which less than 20K. Assuming that you specify the HEIGHT and WIDTH of your images, this size allows your page to display content in well under 8 seconds, the average time users are willing to wait for a page to display without feedback.
- IMAGES_SIZE - Warning! The total size of your images is 128880 bytes, which is over 30K. Consider optimizing your images for size, combining them, and replacing graphic rollovers with CSS.
- SCRIPT_SIZE - Warning! The total size of your external scripts is 9132 bytes, which is over 8K. Consider optimizing your scripts for size, combining them, and using compression where appropriate for any scripts placed in the HEAD of your documents.
- CSS_SIZE - Caution. The total size of your external CSS is 5520 bytes, which is above 4080 bytes and less than 8K. For external files, try to keep them less than 1160 bytes to fit within one higher-speed TCP-IP packet (or an approximate multiple thereof). Consider optimizing your CSS and eliminating features to reduce this to a more reasonable size.
- MULTIM_SIZE - Warning! The total size of your external multimedia is 26452 bytes, which is over 20K. Consider optimizing your multimedia files for size, or replacing them with lower-bandwidth alternatives, or eliminating them altogether.
