WP 2.6 and Dreamhost for example at the moment...really hard when it comes to performance.</p>Julian GruberFri, 10 Oct 2008 10:50:33 -0000http://www.wp-fun.co.uk/2008/10/06/back-to-the-future/#comment-3025204<p>Occasionally I go back to WP 1.5 to check out the backwards compatibility of something, and I'm always amazed at how much faster the admin for 1.5 is.</p><p>I sometimes think that WP would be better as a stripped-down core package, with much of the popular stuff---TinyMCE, Widgets, Auto-upgrade, etc.---as bundled plugins. There would be a number of benefits for speed, security, and flexibility.</p>AustinTue, 07 Oct 2008 13:11:38 -0000http://www.wp-fun.co.uk/2008/10/06/back-to-the-future/#comment-3025203<p>Ah yes, Good point Jeff.

But, I think a good example of what you are talking about is the search in the admin panel. Who uses that thing lol.</p>Jeffro2pt0Mon, 06 Oct 2008 14:48:00 -0000
