Screenshot added. I am also looking for further suggestions.

how many query ?
is there any option for cache tags ?

This mod adds 1 query to forumdisplay. This query is not cached. As there is just one small query I do not know how if caching here would be possible anyway.

Is this for per section rather than on the home page as I have a similar one on my home page of VB. Here is what I use currently how does this one differ?

It's different in two ways:
1. Your mentioned product is placed on FORUMHOME, mine is placed on FORUMDISPLAY.
2. If you click on a tag in your mentioned product, you'll see all threads tagged with this tag. If you click on my tag, you'll only get a list of all threads tagged with this tag within actual forum.

thanks

suggestion :
tags location before ther footer

I need to have placed them on top. But I'll take this into consideration into making an option about that.

I also put some space after tag cloud. I updated product xml file and screenshot.
