For our latest benchmarking, we’ve looked for common performance themes and added guidance for how to get these sites faster.  Here are the load times of the Techmeme Leaderboard - a highly respected list of the sites that are most frequently linked to by Techmeme’s human editors and aggregation algorithms.  

Our research shows us how long it takes for each of the sites to load  -  the average sites load time 11.42 seconds. These sites are very rich, content heavy sites – and its interesting to see not only the load times, but the common best and worst practices each is using, and the guidance for making them faster.  The adoption of best practices already gives a big speed difference for sites in the Techmeme leaderboard.
