Made some optimizations to my site today.Β 
  • Enabled the django gzip middleware so html is compressed over the wire. Practically speaking, responses loads should be about 5kb now, or a quarter of the previous size.
  • Optimized the queries for public facing pages. All pages now require less than 10 queries.
  • All optimized images will now be automatically resized by 50% and converted to webp (where supported). This helps reduce images sizes from drastically, usually to around 100k or less, each.

  • @jamesvandyne This is perhaps somewhere on your list of things to do but when truncating your longer posts, it'd be neat if Tanzawa added an ellipsis to indicate the truncation.

  • @pyrmont That’s a good idea. Thanks for the suggestion!
