Performance Tuning

Tomorrow I am planning on releasing Geeklog 1.3.1 which will be nothing more than a bunch of minor bug fixes. I\'d like to see the release after that really get after improving performance in Geeklog. I can categorize Geeklog\'s performance problems into two categories: 1) Database-related and 2) Template-related.

I know some of you Geeklog Admins have good PHP Kung-fu so I\'d like to see what some of you are capable of doing to help boost Geeklog\'s performance. It doesn\'t matter how big or small the change is as long as it speeds things up. Take a page or two (or however many) and see if you can squeeze out some speed. If you can get something that impoves the speed by at least 0.1 of a second then post here how you did it. Any posted suggestions will be looked at and possibly added to the first post 1.3.1 release. To help, you can use the timer class in your /path/to/geeklog/system/classes/ directory or you can simply use the time output at the bottom of every page.

Let\'s see if we can\'t speed this bad-boy up!
