Wordpress 2.5 Upgrade

Tags
Tags:

Ok, so WP 2.5 is out and I have to say the upgrade was a breeze thus far. I will see how it affects my broken theme with this post. I have to say I love the new admin interface, its a lot cleaner with an easier interface although it may need a slight tweak with higher screen resolutions as it currently only fills about 60% of my screen when browser is maximized.

Well done to all involved, I am looking forward to 2.6 already, I think its the start of something wonderful.

Testing Wordpress Super Cache Performance on SLES 10 SP1 using Siege

I was reading a post by Donncha recently on the new Wordpress plugin, WP Super Cache. He mentioned that he did not know what the performance would be like, which got me thinking about running my own tests to see for myself (I was doing some basic ones anyhow for another idea I had). There are many bloggers using Wordpress whom do not know one technical thing (nor should they!), but they should know what its gonna be like for them when their site gets busy.

N.B. My intention here was to just see what would happen. This should not be regarded as a complete proper test, but rather an indicative one. I had limited time and was not arsed doing this 100% correctly.
