Re: A/B split testing on PHP built website

Message-ID: <gbt22m$2qe$1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> from Jerry Stuckle
contained the following:

To virtually anyone else, "Performance" is how fast the site is
responding. That has been the definition of "Performance" when it comes
to code for the over 40 years I've been programming.

Ah well,prior to programming, I had quite a lengthy spell in Marketing
and PR so my definition is not so fixed.


Of course, it may be that people do not buy from the site because it
takes 30 seconds for the shopping cart to refresh. I'll agree that
doing an A/B test on the colour of the front page will be a complete
waste of time in this scenario.

Of course, if the op wants to redefine the meaning of "Performance", he
is free to do so. But he shouldn't expect clear responses when he does.

Agreed, not in a technical group like this one. But it does show that I
did indeed read the thread. ;-)
