It's taking upwards of three minutes just to get an Edit command to bring up an Edit screen.

I've tweaked up the search some more.

On Karen Johnson's suggestion, the "miser mode" search now goes ahead and does a title search, which is still quite fast and useful enough for most purposes, and only then provides the google link for fulltext searching. Miser mode now goes into effect on weekends as well as weekdays, but is still only half the day.

Fulltext searching on the other languages and meta is not impeded.
