Django tip: Caching and two-phased template rendering @ Adrian Holovaty http://www.holovaty.com/writing...
Article describing how to cache entire pages except for the "You're logged in as [username]" bit at the top of the. Smart use of middleware. - Anton
Great idea. - Steve Lacy
I think all we really need to make this very usable (instead of the {% raw %} is some way to label template tags, and then exclude them from any particular invocation of the template renderer. This would allow for arbitrary N-pass template rendering (and thus, caching) - Steve Lacy

This is puzzling me: django 1.0 with a mysql database, innodb engine, database created with character set utf8 collate utf8_general_ci.... filtering by object name is insensitive to stressed chars! EntityType.objects.get(name='sven') returns the same object of EntityType.objects.get(name='svèn')...

Very inspired by Eric Florenzano's django-pagination, this one completes it to ease the display of pagniated and sortable tabular data, WITHOUT changing your views! Hope you'll like it :) - directeur

Is there a Django middleware out there that can notify me of slow requests? Ideally it would look at a setting to find the maximum number of seconds any request can take, if a request crosses that boundary then it should mail me the request object.
Well, I wrote my own inside of the main function that hits MySQL in RSSmeme. It emails me if any query takes longer than 1 second. Still this seems like something that should be done easily in a middleware perhaps even built in. - Benjamin Golub
