It's true that it requires a lot of computation. But both DBpedia
extraction framework and Wikipedia Miner provide ready made solutions
for this task. What is more, you can download the data extracted from
the English Wikipedia by Wikipeda Miner from its homepage [1]. It is not
as fresh as latest DBpedia, but still it is quite valuable.
