I just hope Pligg creator can come up with a version where really lean and clean querries to the database somehow, and cut down the use of intensive resources by half.

My point is that I'm trying to tell what I know, and hope the creator take this to mind and come up with a better product. Not attacking, but trying to point out what's there. If my point is not important to you, then I guess this thread is meaningless to you, but it's important to me as you can see I'm a serious Pligg user, and so I hope for a better Pligg version where database querries will not be a factor.

Pligg is open source and so I don't dare to say much, but I don't mind buying Pligg if Pligg creator comes out with a commercial one where no intensive resource querries to the database, and less buggy version. I have always buy softwares and use whatever open sources that are available. It's a balance thing that I got going, but the point I want to make is that Pligg is not yet ready for the real real intensive production environment. My website is not even busy as others, I mean you can look on Alexa and see my website traffic, it's not even close to busy, and yet Pligg is crawling.
Now I don't know what tool Chuckroast used to analyze my site, but he pointed out some very good suggestions for me to improve performance.

Compress js and disable some modules, if you take a look see you'll find them in the forums

you may benefit similarly as i have seen a marked improvement in my site performance
