           Summary: large pages with a lot of links still slow
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: j.mccra...@comcast.net


I think I reported this once before, but the problem still exists.  I checked
other bug reports that talk about the slowness.  They say they have been
resolved, but this problem has not.

Long pages on the English Wikipedia that have a lot of links such as [[List of
chess books, A-L]] usually take 30-35 seconds to load.  A couple examples from
today:

<!-- Served by srv137 in 34.009 secs. -->
<!-- Served by srv201 in 31.683 secs. -->

Before when I was discussing this problem (probably about three months ago),
there was something missing dealing with cache in the downloaded file (I forgot
what).  

If the page has NOT changed and I am NOT logged in, it is fast.  Otherwise it
is slow.  People were suspecting something in my Preferences is causing it,
perhaps a gadget.  I don't use many gadgets except Twinkle.

I've tested it under IE, Firefox, and Chrome.  Chrome works the best - it seems
to be fast if the page has not changed, even if I am logged in.  The others are
slow anytime I'm logged in, and the page has changed.
