Here's a more complete list of the recent changes I made:

site is now using https
improved login security
added the ability to change the order of threads on any index (see "Order by" at the bottom), including by honor count, download count, post count, view count, current number of viewers, and many more
added live notification of new posts on the current thread (some improvements & bugfix still planned)
added live update of the "user browsing this thread" (some improvements still planned + using the same for board info)
fixed a bug where the post # inside threads was incorrect
fixed a bug where changing the participants on a PM would give an error page
fixed a bug where locked threads would stay at the top of the list for a while
fixed bugs with the livestreams page, including when the list would disappear with clicks (for changing page, ...)

(significantly) improved load time all around the site
this also implies the site will handle itself better when there are a lot of people at the same time

Now the load time is back to an acceptable level but I'm not really happy with it either. I'll keep monitoring it and apply changes as I see fit.
