Make DOM elements invisible during modification
When several properties of a DOM (Document Object Model) element must be modified, each style or content change will generate a repaint or a reflow. It is therefore usually more economical to:
- make the element invisible (set display to none) (1 reflow)
- modify the element properties and then make it visible again (1 reflow)
Thus resulting in a maximum of 2 reflows.

Use a templating engine
Templating engines, like Smarty and Twig, almost always provide a system for caching compiled templates in a binary file containing an intermediate code called bytecode.
This often considerably reduces CPU usage, especially when an intermediate code cache is added to the templating engine’s cache system.
