Thank you for your remarks!
I wish I could get the front page to load so fast as that!
I’m no expert with gtmetrix but it seemed to me like the big delay, when there is one (not sure why you didn’t see one), was for the root page:
http://www.progress.org/wordpress/
and not for any of the assorted calls made from there to images, etc., all of which seemed to load quickly.
Unfortunately, no matter what gtmetrix says, the page itself is ridiculously slow, and all the actions we’ve taken so far have not helped.
