# Further Speed Improvements

December 29, 2005

I have decided to turn on caching to full throttle.

This means that I don’t request the browser any more to check back with blummy.com(
to see if something has changed in the configuration) when you click on your blummy
bookmarklet. So if you have high latency times between you (e.g. when you are living
on the opposite site of the planet) and blummy.com this will most probably be good
for you.

The bad side — and that’s why I haven’t done this before — is that you might run
into a stale copy of blummy more easily when you do some re-configuration. So here
are two hints if you don’t see what you have configured:

 * Delete the blummy bookmarklet and re-drag it from the configuration page. There
   is a little random value that should prevent a stale copy.
 * Clear your browser cache.

I hope that you encounter a further speed increase with blummy and keep on spreading
the word ;)
