Someone on the list suggested MMCache for PHP a while back. I tried it
and it did increase the speed of my MediaWiki installation considerably.
Installation is fairly straight-forward; just compile, enable the
extension in /etc/php.ini or /etc/php.d/mmcache.ini, and off you go.

Reloading the frontpage still takes about 15 seconds. The best result
i've had is 8 seconds. Opening other pages takes about 4 seconds and
using the back button to return to the mainpage is quick (less than 1
seconds).
I went to the testserver and it's much quicker. Is squid cache in use at
the testserver?

the worst is when entering the wiki, sometimes i have to wait about 20

I have a static web on the same server and that is very fast indeed.
File transfers is quick as well.
When using the official wiki beta testserver sometimes the delay is
equally bad there.
This might be the recaching of the MediaWiki message namespace, in
particular the caching stage which may take a while initially. Try
disabling database messages: $wgUseDatabaseMessages = false;
I know this is beta but i'm qurious to know if
this is the expected
speed or if one can expect an increase in speed when the wiki is out
of beta or maybe my server space has too little brain allocated?
Is it *frequently* that slow or once a day?
