Reduce Transfer Size Broadly simplified… Web servers don’t send whole files at once—they chunk them into packets and send those. They don’t currently have a CDN , yet they do experience high traffic levels from all over the globe: Being geographically close to your audience is the biggest step in the right direction.

Browsers will cache tools popular among vocal, leading-edge developers. There's plenty of space for caching most popular frameworks. The best available proxy data also suggests that shared caches would have a minimal positive effect on performance. Browsers now understand the classic shared HTTP cache behaviour as a privacy bug.
