Hi, Are normal 40 queries on category pages that don't have any item?
I made a Directory menu item type. I have 6 categories overall. In this page there are 20 Queries Logged. If I open a category page, it makes 40 or more queries.

The number of queries is not a problem, you can have a single query that is slower than 100 queries, performance problems usually arise from badly written queries or queries to tables that have no indexes.
The code of FLEXIcontent category view has been optimized a lot up, 5x-10x faster than previous official version (v1.5.5 for J2.5) (problem was mainly plugin triggering, but we did other optimizations too). To optimize it further is not a priority for this version
If you are really concerned of performance take care of which CONTENT plugins you set to trigger in category view in your fields. This cost can be the biggest cost paid of creating FLEXIcontent category (this is not a rule maybe all the content plugins that you use are lightweight).
For FLEXIcontent fields functions we bypass Joomla mechanism of triggering all listening observers of a joomla plugin event to achieve performance improvements.
We have thoughts for something similar for content plugins. Since unfortunately calling only specific plugins for a field is not possible if some content plugins have already been loaded-triggered by another field.
e.g. if you set field45 to trigger content plugins B,C and D and you set field47 to trigger content plugins E,F and G
then for field45 content plugins B,C and D will be triggered
and for field47 content plugins B,C,D,E,F and G will be triggered,
because of the joomla way of trigger or registered listeners of an event.
Regards
