It would be nice to see Digg follow their advice. Digg's JavaScript implementation is among the slowest around, regardless of your connection speed (and only marginally dependent on client-side processing power).
Amen to that .. I just about went ballistic when I saw them pushing the smarty template engine - what a pile of crap!!! My current web job has a group of forms that are all built on smarty and there is nothing 'smart' about them - its a hidge podge of pseudo code that turns a document that could have been a couple hundred lines long into this monolithic beast that spans 1000's of lines and multiple includes .. I swear if I ever get ahold of the programmer that made THAT programming decision ....

An app that I use when developing is YSlow, which analyzes your code for front-end optimization:<a class="user" href="http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/">http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/</a>Also includes grades, explanations and suggestions on speeding up your site.

If your server can't handle the digg effect you shouldn't be giving advice on how to speed up a website.
