I've been using the beta for a while now, and i frequently update through CVS. The wiki is installed at an isp and the average SQL response time is between 0.1 and 0.2 seconds. Right now there's only about 3 users of the wiki. I use IE 6.x. However, i find the wiki very slow most of the times. sometimes i have to wait 25 seconds for a page to load. the worst is when entering the wiki, sometimes i have to wait about 20 seconds. 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.
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?
Anyways, thanks to all the developers for a brilliant software and I hope that someone is able to confirm this and/or answer my questions.
Med vennlig hilsen

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;

Is it *frequently* that slow or once a day?
