Database, CPU and RAM usage cut in half. Slow parts of the site targeted. Thanks to New Relic.
I posted on my blog about improvements made on this site thanks to a Rails performance monitoring tool New Relic.
Long story short, viewing a script page should be much quicker now!
Looking at a chart of the slowest actions on the site we see that: updating a script, viewing the index of tags, and uploading a new version of the source of a script are the worst offenders.
Most of the slowness of updating the script is due to re-indexing into Solr. Currently that happens during the request cycle - leading to the user waiting while the search index updates. I'm planning to moving this to more of a queue based system.
I think the users and scripts index can be improved with an index as well, but will have to investigate this weekend.
Is there anything slow on the site that I (and New Relic) has missed?

That's great news, I notice it already!

I know you mentioned it, but every time I update my Google Extra script, it takes a good 10 minutes or so to load the page (freezing Firefox in the process). This isn't something I have to do hugely often, but it is quite an annoyance. Any improvements to that situation are very welcome.

@znerp,
I'll use that script as a test case and work on improving that.

this was very noticeable in a script updater i have... I really thought it was broken because it was fetching things too fast :)
