The other day I finished a side gig I was doing - a Wordpress site recreated using the Wayback Machine - the site went down a while ago and the admin stopped answering phone calls, not to mention emails.

It was a largely pleasant experience, taking me back to my early years as a "web developer". I had to modify some PHP files because the theme used didn't offer slots for widgets in places I wanted it to.

That being said uncached the site takes over 20 seconds to render. CPU load wasn't high so I can't help but wonder what was it doing all this time.
