Hi - I tried to search but unfortunately you can't search on s3 as it's only 2 chars.

I'd like to understand if it's possible to move files to amazon s3 to help with performance - I've moved all of my static graphic files, but there still are a load of other misc files on the rendered page that i'd like to move - css and js files especially.

does anyone know how to do this?

thank you!

This won't help with .js and the like, but ...

No, not unless you think that getting a remote file will be quicker than accessing the same file on your current server's drive. If that is the case, are you running a Commodore 64? j/k!

If your currently having performance issues, I would look at your current set up and get some metrics on what is causing the slowdown. If your on a shared hosting plan, then it may not matter since a lot of what effects performance is outside your control. Your hoster may be able to provide more information regarding your performance issues.

Amazon's EC2 service may be a different story.

Please review the module and comment: http://drupal.org/project/cdn

There is a patch under review to improve serving static files from anywhere: http://drupal.org/node/212376

Plus, here is an issue to get the patch into D6: http://drupal.org/node/212369

Any input/help greatly appreciated.
