Tiens, ça manque d'espace disque, faut dire qu'avec NTFS en système de fichiers, ça n'est pas ce qu'il y a de plus efficace.

Daring Fireball: Why the HTML5 'Video' Element Is Effectively Unusable, Even in the Browsers Which Support It
The bad news: In all three browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox), with the above simple markup, the video content buffers automatically on page load. What I mean is that as soon as you load the web page, the browsers download the actual video files that are embedded
Moi qui pensait que <audio> et <video> étaient prag-ma-ti-ques. Mais non, après des semaines de débats sur les formats à supporter (ou non), les ultra-géniaux (et modestes) concepteurs de HTML 5 ont laissé un élément de base d'utilisabilité de côté. Comme quoi, les mailing-list du WHAT WG auraient dû être bannies à Copenhague.
Resizing the OpenStreetMap Planet EBS in Amazon's Cloud | Development Seed
a tiny map of the worldThis is an enormous amount of geographic data. To put it in perspective, last week's planet was bzip2 compressed at 7.4GB, unzipping to 116GB, and occupying 113GB in a PostGIS database. The process of importing the data is very serious: even with a large Amazon instance which lets me allocate five gigabytes of RAM for the importer, the initial load takes over 29 hours.

16. Why does Firefox load my SWF twice?
Firefox 3 has a known issue that sometimes causes a swf to be 'double initialized'. The problem appears to be fixed in their codebase, but has not been released yet. See the following bugs for more details: bug 438830 and bug 445599.
Or, if you have "Disable cache" selected in your Firefox Web Developer Toolbar extension a double load will occur.
Optimize caching
Most web pages include resources that change infrequently, such as CSS files, image files, JavaScript files, and so on. These resources take time to download over the network, which increases the time it takes to load a web page. HTTP caching allows these resources to be saved, or cached, by a browser or proxy. Once a resource is cached, a browser or proxy can refer to the locally cached copy instead of having to download it again on subsequent visits to the web page. Thus caching is a double win: you reduce round-trip time by eliminating numerous HTTP requests for the required resources, and you substantially reduce the total payload size of the responses. Besides leading to a dramatic reduction in page load time for subsequent user visits, enabling caching can also significantly reduce the bandwidth and hosting costs for your site.
Linux.com :: Using free software for HTTP load testing
A good way to see how your Web applications and server will behave under high load is by testing them with a simulated load. We tested several free software tools that do such testing to see which work best for what kinds of sites.

Monopoly City Streets: What's going on?
We had planned for a lot of traffic on launch day and had been load testing the game - in fact, we've been testing and optimizing for a whole month. However, between the enthusiasm of Monopoly fans around the world, everyone who was excited to try out the new experience and non-stop mentions of the game on Twitter, blogs and everywhere else, our servers were overwhelmed. Based on the stats we have, we show a daily rate of about 1.7 million unique visitors, but the figure is likely far higher.
