Does the AdoDB C extension speed up Concrete?

My experiments with a sufficiently complex page (www.vitanit.com) have shown: no. There even may be a slight time penalty.

To enable it, you'll have to download it, compile it, and add the following to your php.ini:

extension=adodb.so

How do you know that it's installed? phpinfo() will show something like:

ADOdbInfo Extension requires ADOdb classes
Download http://php.weblogs.com/adodb
API Version 5.04

It might be useful for the IdeaDay Import Wizard – which relies heavily on the database.
