I have the following permalinks structure in mind for a new blog, now instead getting theoretical answers on which is best, i would like to find myself which is best in terms of speed. How can i find this? I tried using get_num_queries() but i find the results varying each time i access the blog.
Note: I am running a local XAMPP installation with WordPress on it and i am new to PHP, so any guidance is much appreciated.
/%postname%/
/%post_id%//%postname%/
/%post_id%/%postname%/
/%category%/%postname%/
I am expecting 5000 plus posts but pages wont exceed 10. Thought this might also help someone when replying back to my query. Thank You.
/%post_id%/%postname%/
is the fastest./%category%/%postname%/
the slowest./%post_id%//%postname%/
and/%post_id%/%postname%/
are the same. – gmazzap♦ Apr 29 '14 at 20:56
