Question

If I have to load for example jquery.js file among some (let’s tell about 10) other css / js files, what is a better approach?

• load all from the same server that I have my whole app, or
• use some external servers, like https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js etc.

“Using the google.load() method gives your application high speed and global access to a growing list of the most popular, open-source JavaScript libraries”

Answer 1

Use Google. There’s a good chance this will already be cached on the client’s computer since lots of people use it, so it may be faster.
