Assorted quips:
- We know you don't read very fast and are trying to accommodate that deficiency.
- Perl becomes more distinguishable from line noise at lower bit rates.
- A pensive place such as a monastery should never be rushed.
- You can't hurry perfection.
- PerlMonks is holding back to let Perl6 catch up.
- Donations are welcomed.
...all in good fun, of course.

Donations are welcomed.
Actually, while we are on that topic:
- what kinds of donations - time, resources, coding skills, etc. would be needed to speed up the site?
- In the eyes of those most involved in keeping PM going, are there other issues to be resolved that are more critical than performance, and if so, what are they?
In these times money might be in short supply, but I suspect brains and even time might increasingly not be. We should think about how to take advantage of that.
Best, beth

I find this claim ludicrous. http://www.giantitp.com/forums is so slow that 3 out of 4 posts actually fail and they have a whole section to complaining about it.
Edit:
Actually I had a bit more of a thought about this and I had a look on
http://boardreader.com/. Gitp is ranked 593 whilst perlmonks.org is ranked worse than 100,000 so presumably perlmonks.org ought to be fairly lightly loaded. Have you looked up the forums you are comparing perlmonks against on boardreader?
