The homepage load can be improved by limiting maximum age for item to show in “What’s new”. This can be done in the config file
/intranet/common/config.php
Example code below is limiting what’s new up to 7 days.
// Maximum age (in days) for items to show in "what's new". // 0 means no age limit. WARNING! This may cause what's new to work slowly $cfg_whats_new_max_age = 7;
