XF 1.0 Real-World Page Loading Speed

This isn't so much a 'have you seen this feature' post as one that goes some way to explaining why interacting with XenForo is such an immediate, pleasurable experience.

The following is screen-grabbed from Google Webmaster Tools.

It's good that there is so much enthusiasm about the speed - it's wonderful to use a snappy quick site. Looking good so far.

Extra features do tend to slow down long in the tooth software. It's always annoyed me that's the case even when the new features aren't switched on. Some architecture that allows a choice of features but doesn't slow the software down too much if they aren't switched on would be exciting in the long term.
 
Snappy on the raw ;)

Over time please don't do like all other software and create bloat. If you can keep this up during the life of this product, you have my lifetime respect :)

I'm pretty sure is the last thing Kier&Mike want to do. I really like how well they filter the suggestions and they add useful ones to their TODO list. That shows to me how strategic they think, when they decide implement features.
