Change your css paths, increase content management speed!

I was going to call this "One Weird Tip for Increasing Performance" but thought that might look suspicious.

Seriously, though, my 5.4.X sites have been dogging of late and following this one bit of advice from Andrew’s “Performance & Optimization” article http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/developers/system/performanc... has made ALL the difference when managing my site.

= Don't make your theme editable =

I changed this
<?php $this->getStylesheet('my_stylesheet.css'); ?>
to
/themes/[mythemedir]/my_stylesheet.css
(I removed the php altogether because I was desperate.)

Your projects may be different, but my projects never call for editable themes, so I was fine losing this feature. After making this one change, my content manager no longer complains ceaselessly about the speed of the system while managing content.
