417993 - Decrease Stats dashboard load time

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Statistics, defect)

Description

Currently it takes a really long time to load the stats dashboard because of all the JS files. Need to look into using the compressed timeplot/timeline/ajax libraries and possibly compressing the other JS used.

Will probably use packer.

Firebug load times for a single dashboard page. Had to expand onto 2 monitors to get it all :\

Attachment: firebug load times after first fix

I wrote a shell script and rearranged some timeplot scripts to be able to build a single .js bundle of the tons of scripts it loads for timeplot, timeline, and simile ajax. I also combined all the timeplot css, although that probably won't help much.

Attached is the updated Firebug load times: 15 seconds faster.

I also made a packed version of the bundle script, but there are some JS errors with it so it's not ready yet. Leaving the bug open until we can get the packed version working, as it's 1/3 the size.

Changed my mind - the current setup is how it's going to stay for now.
