I finally upgraded my Wordpress installation to 2.7.1, and while I was at it I decided to change the theme to something that makes reading code snippets a little bit easier. The previous theme I was using limited each code block to about 450px in width, plus it felt a little bit too dark. Now, running this Coogee theme, I’ve got a total of 660px worth of content width.
I’m also trying out the WP Super Cache plugin to speed things up. I don’t get very much traffic here, but Wordpress takes much longer to load than I’m accustomed to, so I thought I’d try the cache route. It makes a huge difference. My main blog index was taking over 3 seconds to fully load, as timed by Firefox’s YSlow plugin. With the cache enabled, it’ll load in about 0.3 seconds. Ahh.
Hopefully all my old posts and comments are displaying properly. There’s some odd character encoding issues that I need to sort out, but if you notice any glaring problems, like broken links or errors, please let me know.
no comment untill now
