This looks like a night of upgrades for Like that Idea. Earlier this evening, we upgraded the server with Zend Optimizer. Now we’ve upgraded Wordpress to version 2.0.2 which is mainly a security release though a few other bugs were fixed. During this upgrade we also upgraded the Ultimate Tag Warrior plugin to version 3.1. The plugin upgrade adds not only tagging suggestions from Tagyu but also Yahoo. Finally, I renabled the Wordpress chaching, but of course once again I’m not seeing that much difference in performance due to the enabled chaching. I wish someone could point me to a good reference to how caching works in Wordpress 2.x.
Are there any negatives to doing all these changes in one night? Well, yes. If there is a significant boost or degradation in performance for this site…I won’t know if it was due to the chaching, Wordpress upgrade, Ultimate Tag Warrior upgrade, or the Zend Optimizer! However, I don’t expect problems to develop (last famous words of an over-confident system administrator).
