Great video, thanks for sharing!
"...the javascript then goes to the Wikipedia API to get the data—*plus a few alterations*." Someone should tell him about Parsoid!
Too bad ServiceWorker isn't really supported on mobile https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ServiceWorker_API#Browser_compatibility (only Chrome Mobile 40). We could always provide our own polyfill in the native apps while adoption ramps up.

Okay if I loop in Jeff on the thread? I bet he'd love to talk with engineers about this stuff!

I'm really excited about service worker, but it's going to be some time until its available broadly.
It's one of the missing pieces for the web browsers to be great. Real background tasks, low level control of networking requests, etc.

Hi Jake,
Nice presentation on speeding up Wikipedia! I thought I'd loop you in on this thread. And if you're not subscribed to mobile-l, we'd love if you joined!

A number of people are looking pretty intently at short run and longer run approaches to speeding up the Wikipedia experience on mobile web, apps, and desktop experience (while of course maintaining or improving relevance and mobile page compatibility scoring in lockstep with multiple UA support). Would you be able to sync up with the people on the CC line?
