This is how fast I hope my site will be once I am done building my own custom theme. Maybe not quite as fast since my regular theme has more images and such, but pretty close.
Click on a few stories and check out how fast things are loading. Not only does this theme allow me to use wp-cache, but I’ve also placed my cache directory on a RAM drive on my server.
The site currently feels extremely responsive to me. Does it to you guys as well?
