It was running Wordpress on Ubuntu. I wonder why Mark isn't using one of Cloudflare, Varnish or even a simple caching plugin.

  "High-availability and scalability are exciting in general but there are certain problems that experts see over and over again." - that was the first line in Canonical's highscalability.com advertorial a couple of weeks ago :-) To be fair, it's a general truism in tech that the cobbler's children never have shoes.

    Or it is simply just that WordPress is expected to work like light-weight static sites.

      That assumption would have been proven wrong ... lots, and lots of times. That's why there are so many great tools (cloudflare, plugins, ...) to take care of problems like that.

    Was that don't use Wordpress or install a cache?
    • eropple 13y ago
      The latter, I assume. Wordpress provides a lot of value that Jekyll or another site generator doesn't, but you do need a cache.

  Because it isn't Mark. It's Canonical...
