Can we read about how the architecture of this site?

Where are the servers located?
Does it use any CDN?
Are all the pages cached static HTML or dynamic?


Seriously impressive performance.

Vlad, you have a blog: do you have the time to write this up?  We could put your post on Reddit/HN and get some attention on D.

Hi all, sorry, I'm on vacation so unable to write a full response.

No rocket science here, just general optimization common sense. Look at what CPU and web profilers (e.g. Google PageSpeed) say and optimize accordingly, rinse and repeat.
