MW already tries to load only very crucial resources from <head>, the rest is loaded from the bottom. From the looks of your wiki, every load.php request takes a considerable amount of time. Do you have caching[1] (most importantly, object caching) enabled? And if so, how fast is disk access (necessary for stat calls)?

Hi. On webhost 10x slower than en.wikipedia.org ( profile http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140819_AJ_10H0/ ), the resource loader insists to load literally everything before showing anything visitors can see. This seems bad. (for the critical rendering path < http://www.webperformancetoday.com/2014/08/12/10-fastest-ecommerce-sites-can...
).
Is it possible to use two resourceloaders? So that after the first loader finishes, the visitors can see something? Can I set priority for loading resources?
As a side note, I deleted lines in resource loader, and manage to cut the dom elements down to 170. But still, it takes 5 seconds to load. (without the semantic part was like 3 seconds near midnight). I also followed http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Performance_tuning.
