Sneak Preview

Right here.

Far from finished, but coming along nicely. The production version will use a different web framework that is about five times faster; I hope to set that up in the next week or so. In the meantime, play around!

Update: Special cached version for high-volume web sites here. The cached version is now standard! However, Minx doesn't cache pages for you if you are logged in. That means that if you are updating the site (posting entries or comments, tweaking the templates) you always see your changes immediately. But if you get an Instalanche or Slashdotted/Farked/Digged/whatever, 99.9% of visitors won't be logged in, and will get the fast cached version of the page.

Pages are cached as they are generated, and if the cached version is less than five minutes old it coughs that up instead, which can be a lot quicker.

For example, processing time for Ace's blog is 0.12 seconds. Retrieving it from the cache is less than 0.01 seconds.

Are the comments supposed to be working on the Minx version? It will let me fill in my name, addy and url, but I don't seem to be able to enter any actual comment text.

UPDATE: on a hunch I opened the page in Firefox and it allowed me to enter text. So this may be a Safari issue.

Yeah, I;ll need to have it turn the pretty editor off in Safari.

That's quite a bit faster.

I like the editor part...  Different and yet exciting!  LOL
