Fixes in font sizing issue

There were many complaints that the font-size on pages was huge. In order to address this, the font-size property has been reduced from 1.5 to 1.25 universally.

Furthermore, the font-size in lists has been adjusted accordingly, so as to look similar to the paragraph text.

Minor performance improvements

After experimenting with Apache’s Caching directives, the site performance has seen a marginal boost (from 39 to 51).

Still a long way to go, but progress nonetheless.

One major factor is importing stylesheets from Google’s Font server. What can be done is to serve these assets from our own server (and thus be in control of cache).

GIT LFS

Today, GIT-LFS was installed on the server (in the user bin) and the theme repository was re-cloned to get the lfs extension working properly. Henceforth, there should be no problem syncing the repo with binary objects added, removed or modified.
