Heiya,
I must also note that the virtual host for the foreground wiki was badly configured when
it comes to page speed. After adding some fluff the rating from Google went up from 60 to
now 77. Basically I added configurations for mode headers, expires and deflate which I did
not have in there before. Also I upgraded the Header Tabs extension to master which now
uses the ResourceLoader (not yet released). To cut it short: It is not just the skin but
also other factors which enormously impact page speed which are beyond the things
MediaWiki as such can do.
Tom's link already included the fluff I added.
Cheers Karsten

Hi Nischay

In actuality it's about 5% of the page load. Don't chase Google's page speed
insights, technically has nothing to do with page speed. Minifying HTML is a joke, to what
saving 10% of that actual load which is barely nothing. MediaWiki minifies CSS output
already.
Even Google is own site doesn't get a stellar mobile rating nor does Facebook and
some of the other big ones. I have sites that I actually get flagged because Google
analytics and their tag manager doesn't have a high enough expiration passed in its
header.
Quite frankly you do you want some CSS above the fold because you don't want to have
a flash of unstyled content,

If you need to improve speed, a lot of it's going to have to do with your server
hosting your site. Header expires, response, php caching, gzip compression of output,
etc...
Having said all the above, there is a mobile out module for resourceloader. It might be
worth a look at ways to reduce js because that's the large target in loading a page.

Hi,
I am trying to make my site load faster on mobile and consulting Google's PageSpeed
tool for the same. I see that the styles loaded by Foreground skin is pretty huge. Any
idea how we can work to reduce this?
