Decrease load time of an Polymer 1.X app

45 Views Asked by At

I have a Polymer application, and I would like to find the easiest possible path to decrease load times.

The app is online (although it's TOTALLY unfinished): http://www.entertainers.biz/

At the moment, load times are geological.

I tried polymer build, but only got marginal improvements. The problem is that fetching the app is 219 request (two hundred and nine-teen!).

Ideally, I would turn the two main files (my-main.html and my-app.html) into something static. I experimented with vulcanize, and when I tried to vulcanize one or the other, the whole thing basically stopped working.

Another approach would be to create a file that includes everything needed by my-app and my-main in terms of imports (and just those), and then include the vulcanised version of those, so that those become one call (of around 1Mb).

Am I missing something totally obvious?
