I’m sure i’ve posted or commented somewhere before about the speed of posting with wordpress. I’d always assumed it was all the pingbacks/trackbacks happening in the background that would slow the saving of the post. It seems Owen has the same idea, being knowledgeable about such things… Why Posts Take Forever to Publish suggests it is the ping/trackbacks that may be the issue, and a possible solution of doing all the trackbacks seperately is suggested as below.

So i’m going to give it a whirl and see if it makes life more pleasant !

There is also a patch to fix something in the pinging mechanism.

http://rpc.weblogs.com/RPC2
http://ping.feedburner.com
http://api.feedster.com/ping.php
http://www.blogdigger.com/RPC2
http://api.moreover.com/RPC2
http://www.newsisfree.com/RPCCloud
http://ping.blo.gs/
http://www.syndic8.com/xmlrpc.php
http://api.my.yahoo.com/RPC2
http://ping.weblogalot.com/rpc.php (Currently shows a PHP error)
http://topicexchange.com/RPC2
http://rpc.technorati.com/rpc/ping
http://rpc.newsgator.com/ (Seems non-existant?)
http://xping.pubsub.com/ping/
http://www.blogstreet.com/xrbin/xmlrpc.cgi (Seems non-existant?)
http://rpc.icerocket.com:10080/

p.s. Well that took 7.83 seconds to post, seemed like a long time…

I shall change the rpc settings back for my next post and see the difference

p.p.s applied the patch and the rpc changes and i’m still getting over 7 seconds !!! Damn it !!
