Dramatically improved response times

[Abe Dane]

The server upgrade and performance tuning we did over the weekend have had an even larger impact on performance than we had hoped.  Response times for typical end-user pages are now about half what they had been, and Admin operations such as publish are much faster as well.  We'll continue to monitor and keep you updated, but we're now very optimistic that the recent efforts have paid off and that we now know how to deliver a significantly higher level of performance than in the past.
