Steve Souders on Performance

At WordCamp SF Steve Souders gave a great talk about how to optimize your web site for better performance. He used a standard WordPress installation with Carrington Blog 1.3 for the demonstration.

In his presentation, Steve outlined a number of things that could be changed with the Carrington Blog theme to improve site load time. It’s unfortunate that Steve was using version 1.3 of this theme as most of the changes he recommends were already addressed in Carrington Blog 2.0, however there were a few things that we’ve been able to improve based on his notes.

We’ll have these enhancements included in a maintenance release of Carrington Blog in the near future (or grab them from the public SVN anytime).
