Ok. Do you want to go and get rid of those queries in any close time? I doubt so. This will require at least a month of full time work. So I proposed you the immediate working solution for the current TYPO3 version.

I do not just think. I know. That's the point.

Well, I did not ask you to use static file caching. I asked you to enabling caching pages to files. See the difference?

No one claimed it.

Not possible without disabling lots of TYPO3 functionality. Optimization is possible. Getting rid of that "stuff" is not.

You know why? ;) For example, get rid of some workspace queries in the core and you will see a performance increase.

I simply a bit frustrated. I give you solutions because I know that they are tested and work. You doubt it and reply with theories that are not proved by anything. I tell you to use file-based caching and you confuse it with static files... How should it look from here? Sorry if my previous mail looked rude. But you had a problem with performance, I tried to help. Asking for help and refusing to accept it does not look right.
