The tricky one is consolidating multiple edits to a page into one entry on the Recent Changes page, the way UseMod and Phase II did. This is a big performance hit.
Do we have some measurements on this? Would it be worth the effort if I tried to come up with some SQL that did this for the new script?
I prefer not consolidating, as that lets me see if there's a vandal about, even if most of the vandalisms have been overwritten. (I still put the IP address of the vandal/newbie in the comment when fixing.) If you must consolidate, at least don't consolidate major edits with minor ones.
