I was loading a number of google fonts onto my web page and the delay seemed terrible on slow connections. You can improve the performance by combining the requests into one

<pre>
<code class="language-markup">

Slower

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat" />
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans" />

Faster, combines two network requests to one

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat|Open+Sans" />
