- Cache get_feeds() on User object to avoid duplicate term queries (called 3x in author-header.php) - Reuse known author in have_posts() loop instead of per-post wp_get_object_terms() lookups via get_post_author() - Add static cache to get_actor_metadata_from_attributed_to() to avoid repeated JSON parsing for the same actor across posts - Add lazy-loading to User/Subscription get_post_count_by_post_format() matching the pattern in the global version (return placeholders instead of running expensive queries synchronously)
Root cause: Remote_Actors::get_avatar_url() triggers the activitypub_remote_media_url filter which synchronously downloads avatar images via HTTP when not locally cached (2-3.5s per post). - Rewrite author_avatar_url filter to read icon directly from actor JSON (already in memory) instead of calling get_avatar_url() - Replace get_avatar_url() in get_actor_metadata_from_attributed_to() with get_icon() + object_to_uri() to avoid the same HTTP trap - Cache User/Subscription objects in get_post_author() to avoid recreating them for every post from the same author
Use the cached get_actor_metadata_from_attributed_to() which already calls get_actor() + get_icon() instead of duplicating the logic.
Removed the force fetching parameter from the get_post_count_by_post_format method and its related logic.

ccda819commit added thefriends_author_avatar_urlfilter toheader.php, which triggers ActivityPub actor metadata lookups for every post in the loop (previously only status-format posts). Combined with existing N+1 patterns, this made author pages noticeably slow.Test plan
