Scalability for Thousands of Posts

  • We’re considering switching Gadgetopia.com from Movable Type to WordPress. Gadgetopia has about 2,100 posts, 27 categories, and just over 1,200 comments.
    I imported everything to a test install:
    https://www.gadgetopia.com/wp/
    It’s pretty slow. The front page takes 19 queries and between 4 – 8 seconds to render. Category pages are worse: 21 queries and more than 25 seconds.
    Is there any current (or planned) method to write pages out to static files a la Movable Type? I realize this will remove the ability to have private entries, but that’s a limitation I can live with.
