Just wondering...
Are all RocketTheme templates optimized for performance (YSlow, Smush.it) before being made available?
Thanks.

Not to the extreme (see Afterburner for that) but they are being developed with performance in mind. As stated before, the demo sites showcase everything but having everything enabled doesn't mean your site will be blindingly fast. So essentially, you will still need to fine tune everything as your setting them up.

- Our templates are optimised to the best of our abilities without sacrificing on usability. There are always more things you can do to save a few seconds here and there but we do take note of performance when developing our templates.

Been trying my best in optimizing templates as i am in southeast asia where internet is generally quite slow. Even tho i am spending $50 on VPS, re sized all images, compressed all CSS and JS, visitors are still complaining about the speed of my sites in comparison to other sites.
Also I ve done my best to chose light components and avoid anything that adds to many queries and requests..
Is there any recommended tutorials on how to add anymore speed to joomla sites? I ve looked at a few however would be good to get your tusted recommendation..
What would be great to lean which i have no idea how to is bringing all CSS and JS into one..

- Retired, but build and run websites for organisations of school leaders and others - e.g. http://www.icponline.org, http://www.aspa.asn.au, http://www.appa.asn.au
- Can you tell us one or more of your website addresses?

Getting everything right according to stats would require lot of work
As JEM suggested, Go in for afterburner as it already has been using most background sprites making the speed faster
- Quick tips::
1) Clear your browser cache if changes dont reflect
2) Provide link to your site to help us help you better
3) Use in firebug

- How about a Gantry layout that reworks the afterburner? I think that would be good.

I also think there's a posibility to specifically optimise your server for joomla (since you got a vps)
Also, try a cluster hosting solution. OR at least ask if it will benefit u on www.webhostingtalk.com/
