Snappy 4.7
I’m aware this sounds like blowing our own trumpet, but I just upgraded the site I’m working on for a client from 4.6.2 to 4.7.1. No other server changes whatsoever, a simple update. Server’s running on the lowest Digital Ocean droplet, with Apache, Percona and PHP 7.0.something as I haven’t updated to the latest yet.
Been working on the 4.6.2 site for a few days, modifying Pages and Forms and clicking articles to test things, and navigating the admin side yahde yahde. Was impressed with how it behaved. But wow, after the upgrade everything just feels so much more responsive. Like, a huge step up.
Sure, there were a few MB of logs which have now been zapped on update so that’ll be having a fair impact on public site performance, but overall the entire experience feels super clean and super fast on both public site and admin side.
I’m majorly proud of our success at managing to pack this many new features into Textpattern and not only keep its nimble spirit alive but also to make it more efficient and a joy to work with.
Hats off to everyone who has made 4.7 what it is. Looking forward to our next milestone.

Yep, here’s some real-world speed testing of our homepage (which is fairly heavy due to media within) and a less-heavy (and fairly standard) blog article which bears out your own experiences:
Homepage
Blog article
And just for fun, homepages of some other CMSes as a comparison. Not too scientific, but you’d assume each was running on pretty optimal code and hardware. In order of performance. Oh dear, Drupal, oh dear (so glad I don’t have to use that CMS in my day job any more).

Yummy! Phil, where did you do those tests?

Check what’s listed under “following resources”. You can optimise that for data served from your own site but if they’re external services, I don’t think you can (correct me please someone if I’m wrong).
I get that message when using typekit and the best you can do there (I think) is extend the caching period in the typekit kit settings.

There’s also a quite comprehensive list from here downwards in the HTML5 Boilerplate htaccess file.

You could make the “Serve static content from a cookieless domain” into an A if you use the oui_cookie plugin and create yourself and GDPR type permission.
