Thanks kprojects — that works.

It appears that this problem occurs when the “siteurl” and “home” values in the wp_options table are not identical.

For example, on my site http://www.swapnyc.org, I had http://www.swap-nyc.org for one and http://www.swapnyc.org for the other. Both urls work for my site, but WP chokes (I think it’s a cookie thing) when these aren’t the same.

I’m having the same problem — however, commenting out that line doesn’t seem to fix it.

Any other ideas?

What solution did you end up finding? I’m looking for something similar, and would love to know if you found something that works well.

Thanks!

I’ve been having similar problems.

I’m my case, I’m linking large mp3 files and podcasting. Publishing a post would take 15 minutes. Reading through this thread, I found that disabling trackbacks/pingbacks worked.

However, in addition to that, I found that I had to clear my browser cache after each post, or wordpress would stall out completely. I think this is related to my use of the WYSIWYG plugin, and the iimage-browser plugin that’s part of that. I hacked the iimage-browser to do mp3s & video, so that the editors of the site didn’t have to use a separate FTP to upload them. In any case, clearing the cache after each post, while slightly annoying, seems to have done the trick.
