Well you can reduce the number of posts on the home page, hack the template to remove the video and random posts as well. Or move to a different web hosting? I moved and the problems went away

It already does. It has a caching system but unfortunately it still needs to call a PHP script to check whether a cache has already been created or not.

TimThumb is great although a bit pricey. My webhost, HostGator can handle this theme just fine, though

Great article! I run Arthemia Premium and it has too many queries. I will make some changes to reduce this but what I am most interested is changes to timthumb

I cant understand why timthumb needs to recreate the thumbnail on each load? The thumbnail(s) should be saved as physical files (based on the height and width needed) when you save a post then you can reference those physical images. Are you aware of a plugin or a way to do this? I can modify timthumb to save the files but I am not sure about the workpress hooks to execute it when saving a post…
