Advice on related post plugin that doesn't impacts to much on page load speed

Unfortunately I don't know enough of the specific intricacies of how each plugin performs for speed. But you pretty much named all the top plugins I can think of.
What I am suggesting is, to choose your favorite plugin and then use caching and maybe even a CDN to help with pagespeed.
Webpagetest shows you are using neither right now: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140108_9E_b84581251c692e8e31f098c5f3ad5917/ - and it shows that images are not compressed either.
So in other words, make everything else about the site as fast as possible.
If you examine the waterfall view for example, there is a file taking over 1.3 seconds to load --> http://screencast.com/t/UooUNXsuiZ

Dan Shure thanks for the answer. With that pluggin (YARRP) that i used on my web before, my page speed significantly increased. I am know using zemanta related post. Although i can not manage to place the related posts on pages.
They give this code to place related posts were you want but it seems i am doing something wrong as i can not find the correct place for the code.
Also heard about nrelated. And i have used shareaholic before but also a problem with site speed made me change to zemanta.
In all of them as my website as 4000 pages, i have a increased database slow in posting new posts, but my main concern is about user experience and a faster website

To add to Bradley's answer, which would be my choice plugin, after it's installed you can test it with webpagetest.org or Google PageSpeed Insights - and basically see if any of it's elements are causing a slow load time, and you can use things like caching or a cdn to work against any slowness the feature might add.

I would suggest Yet Another Related Posts Plugin (YARRP), but since your main concern is performance - be wary of large sites. This plugin can be resource intensive on large WordPress sites, in which case it is to your advantage to use YARRP Experiments to control the cache and throttle.

Wordpress: Why do the URLs of my posts keep changing to match the posts titles?
I'll try to keep this brief. The URLs of my posts keep snapping back to exactly match their post titles, no matter how often I try to change them. e.g. title: How to Tie Your Shoelaces desired URL: tie-shoelaces BUT actual URL: how-to-tie-your-shoelaces Anyone come across/ resolved this issue before?

Which is better? One dynamically optimised page, or lots of optimised pages?
For the purpose of simplicity, we have 5 main categories in the site - let's call them A, B, C, D, E. Each of these categories have sub-category pages e.g. A1, A2, A3. The main area of the site consists of these category and sub-category pages. But as each product comes in different woods, it's useful for customers to see all the product that come in a particular wood, e.g. walnut. So many years ago we created 'woods' pages. These pages replicate the categories & sub-categories but only show what is available in that particular wood. And of course - they're optimised much better for that wood. All well and good, until recently, these specialist page seem to have dropped through the floor in Google. Could be temporary, I don't know, and it's only a fortnight - but I'm worried. Now, because the site is dynamic, we could do things differently. We could still have landing pages for each wood, but of spinning off to their own optimised specific wood sub-category page, they could instead link to the primary sub-category page with a ?search filter in the URL. This way, the customer is still getting to see what they want. Which is better? One page per sub-category? Dynamically filtered by search. Or lots of specific sub-category pages? I guess at the heart of this question is? Does having lots of specific sub-category pages lead to a large overlap of duplicate content, and is it better keeping that authority juice on a single page? Even if the URL changes (with a query in the URL) to enable whatever filtering we need to do.

Post Pinguin Onpage Optimisation - How Do I Build the Perfectly Optimized Page?
Hello, So far I always follow the recomendations of the chocolate donuts example of Rand Fishkin on the Blogpost: How Do I Build the Perfectly Optimized Page? I also think that the onpage grades follow this rules. Do you think this is still all true after pinguin? Personally none of my websites have been afected by the update and I have an A grade on all my landing page. What do you think about the image alt text. Is it still a good idea to use the keyword? Are there any newer resources here on SEOMOZ (I didn't find any with my search)? Thanks for sharing your experiences.. Regards

On-page keyword usage
SEOMOZ gave me all zeros for keyword usage. Why? The site is www.grass2greens.com and the keywords are "Asheville Landscaping Edible." The site includes these words in the title page and throughout the body text. I am not really sure, but maybe one cause for these low keyword usage ratings might be redirects or some meta tag issues, but I am really not sure. Any ideas?

Page titles and descriptions
A website has several wigets to show Each wiget with its own page The wigets mostly just vary in size How would you suggest titles be done? Example: Wiget 1ft Wiget 2ft Wiget 3 ft an so on........ Would this trigger a duplicate content issue given “Wiget” leads in the page title?
