It uses URL rewrites to speed up pages loading time on pages with many CSS and JavaScript includes.
The script intercepts called scripts and compresses them to reduce their size.
It also addresses the problem of requesting multiple files at the same time.
Multiple script calls like:
http://www.softpedia.com/javascript/script1.js
http://www.softpedia.com/javascript/script2.js
http://www.softpedia.com/javascript/script3.js
http://www.softpedia.com/javascript/script4.js
http://www.softpedia.com/javascript/script5.js
Can be merged into one single major call, reducing the time needed to load them, and avoiding the server's request limit.
