Bustle.com's speed
Post Body

When you click on an article on Bustle it's super fast compared to most news sites, or any site for that matter. How is this being achieved, is it just from not having to load ads/comments/other in page apps or is it just not having to load heavy js files? I know removing js from the head helps but I don't think it achieves it that fast. It looks like the page is instantaneous and the main jpg image loads last which is ~100k. Maybe it loads all the articles when you load the main page so when you click on the article it's preloaded?

I notice it uses ember.js but I haven't heard/used it before. Thoughts?
