I just made a few adjustments to what content gets cached, and how often the cache is refreshed. So what this means is the stuff that doesnt change that often wont have to make a round trip to the database everytime. So thinks like "Whos in Chat" is only refreshed every 5 minutes instead or every time a page is loaded. So when I do this for alot of the various "parts" of the website this adds up to much faster page loads. You will also notice this in the "recent picture" along the right hand side. If you add a picture, it will show up in the picture section right away, but wont show up in the "Recent Photos" area until the next cache refresh (5 minutes).

Let me know if you folks see any difference in load speed.
