I didn't realize it wasn't happening before and I'm not sure what
changed. I suspect the Neodoc stuff started from some pre-release
version of webhelp
Regarding performance, In general, if you host it on a CDN, it will
perform better. But the stock webhelp served off a modest cloud server
seems fine:
http://snapshots.docbook.org/xsl/webhelp/docs/ch01.htmlBut I know we could clean up the js and css (combine things to reduce
the number of GETs and minimize the js).
Let me know if what you find and if there are changes we should make in
the webhelp.
