I have a particular question regarding my current requirements:
My server is hosted locally, with all users and servers in the same country. It's not an Amazon AWS or Azure server where CDN services can be applied to files.
Do you think it's more efficient to load CSS/JS files from my server, where I can compress all files into one .css and one .js file? Or would it still be preferable to use an external CDN for my libraries even when my files are not combined?
(Note: gzip and caching are both enabled on my server)
