I think improving performance would be great, there isn't a developer devoted to improving what already exists.

As a user, I personally see placing new features over making old features work better a large mistake. Perhaps that was necessary back in the days of PHP3, but its been a very long time since I've run into simply not being able to do something. Quite often, however, I've run into that the most direct way of getting something done performs too poorly to be usable. Maybe I'm just stuck with worse hardware than most others, but improved performance is one of the biggest thing I'd like to see out of new releases.
There's a lot that can be said about this. Of course it would be great if things get faster. But this optimization should be done very carefully and under strict supervision of those who know how and why things were done in a specific way. Alexander just sprays around some code snippets with a high risk of introducing new bugs that might be invisible for weeks.
But this is another discussion.
Alexander: become a teamplayer! Don't try to be the star and do everything yourself. Follow those who lead. And for that sake: Derick is one of them :).
