 In testing with real users at foss4gna it was noted that the website is
 too slow (clicking multiple times to load a project page due to lack of
 response).

 As I understand it Wordpress processes a database to generate each page,
 and a range of caching plugins are used so this only occurs when the
 content changes.


 * Look at theme performance - our theme does a lot so it is probably slow
 * Caching plugin - not sure if we use one
 * Content Delivery Network - not sure if we use one
 * Optimize images - we already use smush
 * expires header to static resources?
 * disable gravitar - we added this after Get Interactive gave us the site


 I do not really mind what we do, but we should look at performance and do
 something ...
