Snappier Textpattern
I just implemented most of Kevin Hale’s suggestions (I wasn’t willing to give up the built-in css editor) on How to Speed Up Your Textpattern Web Site. It seems to work pretty well since his site is running fine even though it is currently being slashdotted. I also implemented asy_jpcache yesterday so that should help as well.
The only downside is the css is not loading correctly for ShortStat. But I can live with that for the moment.
