That seems high...I made a blank page with the RadScriptManager and Combo being the only things on the page (compression enabled) and I come out @ 92k

You can strip the MSAjax out of the Webresource, and let that come down by itself so its not part of the same axd

    
                <telerik:RadScriptManager runat="server" > 
        
                <Scripts> 
        
                    <asp:ScriptReference Assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" 
        
                                         Name="MicrosoftAjax.js" 
        
                                         Path="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/3.5/MicrosoftAjax.js" /> 
        
                </Scripts> 
        
                </telerik:RadScriptManager>

Doing that dropped mine to 66k

...and then turning on the Telerik CDN dropped it to 8k

    
            <telerik:RadScriptManager runat="server" CdnSettings-TelerikCdn="Enabled" >

300+ sounds WAY high....can you post your page? Is there a masterpage with other controls?

I had it in a master page. I stripped the page down to bare bones.
Here is what I have:

    
            <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="SizeCheck.aspx.cs" Inherits="SizeCheck" %> 
        
            <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
        
            <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">  
        
            <head runat="server">  
        
                <title>SizeCheck</title> 
        
            </head> 
        
            <body> 
        
                <form id="form1" runat="server">  
        
                <rad:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server" /> 
        
                <rad:RadComboBox ID="selSearchProduct" Skin="Vista" runat="server" Width="200px" Height="150px" 
        
                                DataTextField="ProductName" DataValueField="ProductId"  AppendDataBoundItems="true"   
        
                                CollapseAnimation-Type="None" ExpandAnimation-Type="None"/>  
        
                </form> 
        
            </body> 
        
            </html>

I saved the page and Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd is 328K

I have the following

    
             <rad:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager2" runat="server" CdnSettings-TelerikCdn="Enabled" > 
        
                       <Scripts>    
        
                        <asp:ScriptReference Assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"    
        
                                             Name="MicrosoftAjax.js"    
        
                                             Path="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/3.5/MicrosoftAjax.js" />    
        
                        </Scripts>    
        
                    </rad:RadScriptManager>

This seems to reduce the size a great deal. The problem that I am seeing now is when I test in my prod environment (using just IP Address for now until I switch DNS), the controls on the page do not load all the time. I do not know if this is due the IP Address or my companies proxy servers. I have a pre-production environment with a DNS name on the internet and that works fine.

Is there any way I can get the js files and I host them on my site rather than have them grabbed from the other sites?

Hi Andy,

It shouldn't matter if you're accessing the site through an IP address or domain name. You can try to narrow down the problem using Fiddler or Firebug. Look for failed requests to aspnet-scripts.telerikstatic.com and aspnet-skins.telerikstatic.com (for RadStyleSheetManager).

As for the size of the response from the Telerik WebResource.axd handler, make sure that you're measuring the compressed size over the wire, not the uncompressed size of the content itself.

Our recommendation is to use the CDN for public sites. Either way, the resources will have to get to the clients. You can choose if this happens in one big request (faster for visitors with unprimed caches) or in multiple, highly-cacheable requests delivered over the CDN.
