[WikiEN-l] Effect on the parser of large navboxes

[Carcharoth]

I just read this mini-essay here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Chemistry&oldid=414309211#Template_size_-_more_information

It is about the effect on the parser of large navboxes (and of other
templates). It is a bit technical, but I thought it might be of
interest.

And I don't know how I ever missed this:

It really is worth reading all that essay and its talk page.
