Cool :-)

No, it's the rendering stuff. Ok, the first post will cache all 
templates and most posting indices, so the second post with still 
running pyds should be faster. But rendering still takes quite some 
time. That's why I plan to put rendering into a background task, like 
upstreaming already is.

Yep, that's on my todo. Actually my todo is my instant radio outline, so 
you can see it (you can use the rendered version under the "Pick my 
brain" link on http://hugo.muensterland.org/).

Yep, that's something I want to do for OS X, too. Some small controller 
App like the one from AmphetaDesk, just to monitor the running 
background process. But it's very low on my priority list currently, 
first I would like to get all todo items done.

Would be really cool. Actually I didn't do any tests with windows up to 
now, so I don't know wether it works with windows. I only have Linux and 
OS X available.
