Would the wiki be a good place for such tips? Not as formal as the

That general direction makes sense, but I'm not sure if the Wiki is
something that this will work for. I fear that it could become
something like the TODO list page: a page that contains theoretically
accurate information, but isn't very helpful. The TODO list needs to
be heavily pruned, but that seems like something that will never
happen.
A centralized location for performance tips will probably only work
well if there are still high standards that are actively enforced.
There still needs to be tight editorial control.
I think there's ways to significantly restrict who can edit a page, so
this could probably still be done via the wiki. IMO we should also be
encouraging users to test various tips and provide feedback, so maybe a
wiki page with a big fat request at the top asking users to submit any
feedback about the page to -performance.
