Yeah, good idea. :) Blanking the whole section made our RC load as fast as that of MA/de, and then reintroducing some of the template calls that contain a DPL changed nothing. It seems to be [[Template:Pages needing citation]] that is the culprit here. Changing its call to not use "randomcount" on the whole list made it a ''little'' better, but loading times were still in the 8-12 seconds range. Even changing its call to completely resemble that of [[Template:Featured article candidates]] didn't help much, so I guess it is the size of the category (<10 vs. >300) that matters here. I've disabled that listing for the moment, and we should discuss whether we need it on RC at all. -- [[User:Cid Highwind|Cid Highwind]] 14:32, January 8, 2012 (UTC) |

Throughout the last weeks, I've noticed a severe lag on our Special:RecentChanges page. I've just tested that using a debugger, and found that getting our RC (last 50 edits, nothing special; just the page HTML itself without other resources) often takes up to 14,000(!) milli-seconds, more than 13,000 of which are spent idling, waiting for a response.
The RC page of MA/de takes much less than that, about 1,600 milli-seconds on average. Other pages on MA/en are served "fast enough" as well, so it doesn't seem to be a Wikia (or even general MA) problem but one with our RC page specifically(DPL comes to mind). Is anyone else noticing this as well? -- Cid Highwind 13:13, January 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Might it be worth removing the DPL and trying the same experiment? If it is the DPL, perhaps we split those things off to another location instead... -- sulfur 13:21, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

- If we're serious about this, then it probably doesn't need to be on the RC, but the editing portal is the only page I know of that always has some serious lag when compared to the rest of the site. That said, MA seems to always be slower than any other wiki I visit, regardless of who is hosting.
