Web pages are becoming more complex with animated pictures, sounds, dynamically generated pages and multimedia components. According to literature, Web developers are converting text data in to images. This not only increase total size of the Web page, but also more resource-intensive to send and retrieve the information. The result is network congestion. Network traffic and more loads on server affect the web performance. To achieve these problems, a Portable Extended Cache Memory, SWAM-M, SWAM-EH, that could reduce web traffic were proposed. In this framework, it is desired to conserve the heavy data at the client side. The experiments were performed on few dummy web sites of different sizes while saving heavy data at client side. Difference in the access times of different sites via traditional method and with the proposed approach was compared. A major improvement in the access time was observed in contrast to that by using traditional methods. Also, an attempt was made to reduce server load and network traffic congestion and it actually resulted into the decrease in the response time and hence an improved web performance could be observed.
