Comments on: The best CDN for jQuery in 2012 https://www.pingdom.com/blog/best-cdn-for-jquery-in-2012/ Website Performance and Availability Monitoring | Pingdom Mon, 16 Dec 2013 10:56:23 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.4 By: brunis1 https://www.pingdom.com/blog/best-cdn-for-jquery-in-2012/#comment-3894 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 10:56:23 +0000 http://royalpingdom.wpengine.com/?p=15829#comment-3894 You are talking about ping times and download times as if they were the same thing?!  how about downloading jquery once ever second for 30 days and then you can talk about reliability and uptime. This is useless.

How about a redo with more cdn’s in the mix? Cloudflare springs to mind, since they are hosting a lot more frameworks. Google’s might be the fastest for jquery, but who only uses jquery these days?

1. How many people have even heard of media temple and if they have heard of them for web hosting who knew they were also providing a cdn?
2. If you’re using google for your https it makes sense to also use them for your http
I am wondering though, with the possibility of people clearing browser cache, is it better to go with a faster dl time or to hope they already have it cached from the more popular cdn?

I don’t have any evidence that Google’s CDN gets blocked when Google/YouTube etc get blocked, but is it worth taking the risk?

Anybody know how they would compare?
