Should gif and jpeg be part of scripts?

[Shankar s <sh...@yahoo.com>]

hi all,

We usually test the performance of any application skipping the gif, jpeg and swf files in the script(you can consider this scenario in whatever tool you use). 

For one of the application we tested, we found that inclusion of these files makes the reponse time increase considerably.

Kindly let me know what is the general practice? Are these gif, jpeg and swf files excluded are included in the scripts and what is the impact you have experienced?

Thanks for your suggestions

Regards

that depends on your production environment. getting the images is
bandwidth intensive. it doesn't really test the application. sites
with performance requirements tend to put the images on a separate
server, so testing without getting the images is valid.

does that help answer the question?
