The fact that your phpinfo.php takes 30 seconds tells me it is an issue with your server in general and not specifically your MediaWiki.
1) How many requests/second are you serving and how many is your server capable of? For example, if your server is only capable of 10 req/sec but you are trying to server 20 req/sec you're going to have a bad time. Use Apache's server-status page to get an idea what the current load is and "ab" (ApacheBench) to benchmark your server (when it is not overloaded of course). 2) You can also check "top" to see what your server load and CPU usage is and what is taking up most of the CPU time. It may be Apache (httpd) or it may be a host of other issues (dead locked processes, failing hard drives, misconfigured components, etc...). 3) Check your logs for any relevant messages, mainly your Apache error log assuming it is enabled. You can increase the PHP error logging level if needed as well.
These simple steps should give you a good start on where the problem is or at least where the problem isn't and you can start narrowing down the issue from there.

I need to figure out why my wiki is running so slow. It seemed fine when I first got it running but as I've added content it has become way too slow for actual use. I did run the rebuildAll.php & that seemed to hel a bit, but when I added more content it again skowed way down. I have wondered if adding the SemanticWiki extension may have caused this. I do have caching enabled and the site is currently up and running, so those interested may look at it. i also have decided to keep Scribunto running as its required for most of the templates, but I hope the bug about 'text/plain' get fixed soon. That is the only issue I currently have with importing pages. Any & ALL tips are appreciated Thanks! john
