I just launched my first client site built with Elements this past weekend, and this morning I ran a site audit that left me really impressed. I wanted to share the results and also thank Dan and the entire Elements team for the effort they’ve put into building such a solid platform.
Of course, part of the score reflects how I built the site, but without a strong foundation like Elements provides, achieving results like this would be much harder. For comparison, I’ve included a screenshot: the previous audit was from a Foundry 3 site, and the new one is built with Elements.…Proof is in the pudding 
been very happy also - moving to DreamHost I would guess doubled my speed from pair and then the elements boost also !!!
