Here is an optimized Wordpress install, with caching turned on and a lightweight custom theme: http://imgur.com/j16xIY0 http://imgur.com/j16xIY0 You can see that there's virtually no difference from your static blog. For me the main selling point of Pelican is the Markdown syntax and the ease of running it on any host. I hear some even run it from Dropbox. On a side note: where can I fork and improve on your theme? :)

> On a side note: where can I fork and improve on your theme? :) It's at https://github.com/razius/razius.com/tree/master/theme https://github.com/razius/razius.com/tree/master/theme , which is a modified version of https://github.com/danclaudiupop/pure https://github.com/danclaudiupop/pure . The underlying framework is http://purecss.io http://purecss.io , and a lot is possible with it. I started hacking that theme too, and then I realized that it may be difficult to merge efforts if I build what I want. I think it would help a lot if Pelican had theme inheritance ( https://github.com/getpelican/pelican/issues/1092 https://github.com/getpelican/pelican/issues/1092 ) and we all reused a common PureCSS base-theme. This is probably an easy issue to tackle for a skilled Python coder.
