Moved analytics scripts to bottom of Layout page, blocking other assets until loaded.
Compressed /css/home-bg.jpg reducing from 106k to 93k
added web.config to enabled compression for App Service in Azure. Microsoft_logo.svg could save 4.2KiB (61% reduction), however svg MIME Type not enabled by default.

@spboyer I don't believe the web.config will have any impact as the static files are served by the ASP.NET Core static files module, not IIS's static files module. Are you seeing something different?

@hishamco makes a good point on the analytics scripts not needing to be separated if we move them all to the end, however they were left separate as we were instructed to use them this way by the folks that run microsoft.com.

The background image optimization is fine of course, happy to take that one.

@DamianEdwards ok, on the web.config - wasnt positive if you were using the IIS module or not.
