Description

I'm finding the load of the first page by a user is very slow over medium speed links. I think this is simply due to the fact that base.rhtml includes 5 javascript files, which are 172KB in size.

I wonder if any of these could be disabled? For example, is there any drag-and-drop in redmine?

If they're all needed, perhaps they can be all "cat"ed together to improve performance? I've done this with the .css files already to good benefit.

BTW, see for example

which came up in my quest to understand how rails deals with javascript_include_tag.

Thanks
