Hugo `0.29` brings Template Metrics by [@moorereason](https://github.com/moorereason). Hugo is very fast, but it is still possible to write ineffective templates. Now these should be easy to identify. Just run:

```bash
hugo --templateMetrics
```
Now, that was the tasty carrot. The real reason this release comes so fast after the last one is to change the default value for the new `noHTTPCache` flag, which gives away too much performance to make sense as a default value.

Hugo now has:

* 19817+ [stars](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/stargazers)
* 454+ [contributors](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/graphs/contributors)
* 180+ [themes](http://themes.gohugo.io/)

## Notes
* Make `noHTTPCache` default false [e94d4f01](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/commit/e94d4f0177852b357f40fb9686a0ff3667d86351) [@bep](https://github.com/bep)
