I've just obliterated a hell of a lot of 301 redirects.
You would never have noticed them, but removing them should make things fractionally faster as it saves 1 HTTP request for almost every page load.
The subtle bug... URLs like /microcosms didn't have a trailing slash /microcosms/ which would trigger a redirect.
/microcosms
/microcosms/
That happened on almost every internal URL.
