# WordPress and Nginx

The fastest WordPress instance I have ever seen — 14 queries in 0.04 seconds, and Pingdom Tools reporting 0.6 seconds load time for the whole frontpage with a default theme. And all of that on a VPS powered by Debian and [Nginx web server](http://wiki.nginx.org/Main "Nginx web server") at [deac.eu](http://www.deac.eu/?l=4) in Latvia . I’ll be moving soon.
