Caching improvements

| 2 Comments

I’ve been seeing some performance losses on this site recently, between the search engines and the spambots, and more load on the T1 I’m behind, so (on Seth’s excellent suggestion) I hacked |WordPress| to never send no-cache headers (which it was sending on requests of every kind). You should see a bit more zippiness from the site now.

Going "back" to one of your pages is ok now, because the browser is allowed to cache it, but new requests are still excruciatingly slow. Loading this page to post this comment took almost three minutes!

Try glaring at the server. That sometimes help. (Though, you're not very scary looking, so it might just ignore you.)
