Description
Hi there! I ended up on the Performance doc page (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/topics/performance/#third-party-services) and noticed a link and recommendation to Yahoo's Yslow for general (non-Django) page speed debugging.
I think we should probably remove this reference; Yslow no longer is shipped as a chrome extension, and has not been updated in over a decade. I'd suggest (no affiliation besides happy user!) GTmetrix as a replacement.

I forgot to include the ticket number in the commit message, fix for this ticket was merged in 6f38697f90a14f1450a71c1e40aea0f5df7dca86 and backported to 5.1 in 5f4252ecd6ce19cbf6d8bb9a3b4cca6a32eb40c2.
Thank you, Dustin. I agree with you. We should remove the two examples and avoid adding any specific tool names, as we risk recommending an outdated or unsupported tool in the near future.
