Wordpress Turbo with Google Gears

Recently, I upgraded my wordpress to the latest version 2.6.3 and I saw a new link - Turbo appears at the top right hand corner of the dashboard. Before I clicked on the link, the first thought that came to my mind is “Turbo? Does it mean to speed up your wordpress?” Therefore to answer my doubt, I decided to click it and find out more.

1. You need to install the Google Gears into your computer.

2. After you have installed the Google Gears, the next step is to restart your browser.

3. After you have restarted your brower, login your wordpress and click the turbo link again. Click “Enabled Gears” to enable your wordpress with google gears. It will take up some times to process depending on the size of your wordpress.

4. When completed, you will see a similar message like the screenshot above.

So far, whether I was reading an existing post or writing a new page, I can see that my wordpress perform better than before. I guess my doubt is redundant.
