No, absolutely not. They have enough http reqs so two more is just a kick in the head
@drmadcat, i will give you some quick tips what you can do..
Your website load pretty fast for a number of requests and huge payload.
But, you can make it load faster.
Lets make it in a few steps:
1. Your first bite time is about 750ms by loading it from San Francisco, where is your website located. Its too too much. First bite time from the same city can be at 20,30ms.
Imagine only how much people from EU need to wait.
2. grab your photo
http://xxxaus.com/images/top_bg.png and convert it in a JPG.
Current size: 342KB
Expected size: 56KB
Savings: 286KB
But its PNG with alpha, so you need to think of it.
3. Also, your pic:
http://xxxaus.com/gallery_images/185bonny2.jpg is way too big.
Current size: 117.1 KB
Expected size: 65KB
Savings: 52.7KB
4. You have a huge amount of http reqs.
616 total!
If you don't want to cut number of images, then put it across a few subdomains.
Subdomains will cause another DNS request witch takes a lil of time, but if you consider that by HTTP standard only 4 files can be download in parallel, with another dns request you will get 8 files in parallel, and so on..you will get huge benefits ;)
5. You don't have Leverage browser caching. Set it ASAP
6. MInify your CSS code
7. Minify your HTML code
8. Minify your JS code
9. Combine JS and CSS codes
10. Optimize your images!
and other, advanced methods..
hope i help
