The reason I believe breaking up templates
improves performance is
this: they're typically of the form
{{#if:{{{someparam|}}}|{{foo}}|{{bar}}}} . The preprocessor will see
that this is a parser function call with three arguments, and expand
all three of them before it runs the #if hook.
I thought this was fixed ages ago with the new preprocessor.
Yes it was fixed in 1.12 (late 2007), as I have repeatedly told this
list. The new "if" parser function is passed a placeholder object
which can be expanded on demand.
