You're comparing apples with oranges. Domas was
testing a simple API
page info query, which is much more lightweight than a full-blown
parse involving enwiki's crazy templates.
So I saw from Domas's followup :-)
Nevertheless - a process isn't the same process when it's going at 10x
the speed. This'll be interesting.
(I'm sure the complexity of templates will go up to compensate, unless
Tim's parser functions reaper is set down to match, muwahaha.)
