Hi All,

I upgraded this blog to WordPress 2.7.1 3.9. I also upgraded the hosting :)

This blog is running on a VPS from Slicehost with 256 MB RAM. The OS is Fedora Core 10.
This blog now (2014) is running on Linode - 1024 and again on Fedora

The web server was nginex (now apache).
Here is my vhost file which contains mod_rewrite instructions + ws super cache instructions

Download nginex-vhost-wordpress-wp-super-cache-rewrite-rules

The strange thing is that the free memory is pretty low it's between 3-15 MB free.

Another thing I didn't like in WordPress 2.7.x is the conversion of single/double quotes by WordPress to *smart* quotes.

Here is how to fix it.

Edit file : /blog/wp-content/themes/default/functions.php

Add these lines:

[sourcecode language='php']
remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize');
remove_filter('comment_text', 'wptexturize');
[/sourcecode]

What I did I also is I edited /blog/wp-includes/default-filters.php and commented the line as shown in the next code.
We don't want every body to know which WordPress version your site is running, right ?

[code language="php"]
//add_action('wp_head', 'wp_generator');
[/code]
