Thanks for the pointer to PivotX .. I hadn't seen it before, and there are some interesting features. However, note that "flat files" are not the same as "static files". The way ikiwiki works is that a tree of static pre-rendered content is "re-compiled" on each commit to the wiki "source tree". When a user accesses a page, the web server is just serving up static content. Very un-PHP-like. The primary trade-off is that the ikiwiki processing load is only at content creation time but you need storage space for the rendered content, while something like PivotX re-renders on each page access but wouldn't need storage space for the rendered content.
