in How to Speed up Your Django Sites on Code Spatter
Great post, even for us non-Djangoers.
One other tip on the serving-static-files thing: move them off your server entirely and don't even use the processing power. Store them on S3. From there, you can use the CDN and map multiple subdomains to the content, so you can spread your requests across multiple subdomains.
The reason for this is that web browsers will not open more than N connections to a given domain. Mapping them across multiple subdomains means that an image/static-heavy page will open even more connections and load concurrently.

Yeah amazon's content distribution network is awesome and not a bad price. I'd like to hook that up sometime soon. I didn't know that subdomains would help with the browser limit. That's a good idea.

in Just Heard About an Open-Source Database Conference on Code Spatter
One of the nice things about living in Orlando is that sometimes, conferences come to us. I just signed up for IzeaFest a few minutes ago, because I got a coupon that took the price to $10 from $65, there's open bar on the first night, and Merlin Mann is presenting.
