Trim URLs

Resources

Shortens resource URLs to relative form where it is safe to do so.

Filter trim_urls · Filter docs

A mod_pagespeed 1.1 filter. ModPageSpeed 2.0 applies it as part of one always-on pipeline, not as a separate switch.

Both frames render identically — that's the goal. The win is in the bytes and requests below, not the look. They're served live by mod_pagespeed 1.1 on demo-httpd-1.1.modpagespeed.com; the optimized frame applies only this filter. Right after a cache purge it may briefly match the original while the worker rewrites it — reload to see the result.
