The Elgg team cares deeply about making sure Elgg is as fast as it can possibly be. That’s why we’ve been submitting lots of performance-enhancing patches for 1.8, and there’s even more to come in 1.9! However, we know we’re not the only ones with ideas for improvement. Lately it feels like the community has had a lot to share in regard to making Elgg run faster and serve more users, and that is exciting!

Since people regularly ask questions about performance, and since the community has had so much great info to share in the past, we figured it would be appropriate to provide a dedicated place to discuss performance tips, get performance help, and do some overall brainstorming about ways we could help make Elgg faster.

So join the Elgg Performance and Scalability Group today and start sharing your ideas! Let’s make Elgg faster together.
