I've experienced performance issues also.  I don't have any custom skins, just 
monobook.  I found that simple pages with little or no query work generally 
took longer.  If Headertabs were present, I could always see the tab strings 
listed for 1-3 seconds before the tabs showed up, versus 1.16 on the same 
machine going straight to the tabs.

Between that and the not-quite-supported extensions, I've had to stop doing mw 
1.17 migration work.

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] ResourceLoader caching problems

Dear members, 

I've just upgraded to MediaWiki 1.17 and also updated my skin file to use 
ResourceLoader.
But the problem is with ResourceLoader, that my site is loading from 8 secs to 
2 mins… Before it took approximately 4-5 seconds.

What I did:
I created an extension with an array structure in it:
$wgResourceModules ['ext.MorroHun'] = array (…) and inside I specified all of 
the necessary own scripts and all the CSS files (both own and skin- related).
After edited LocalSettings to load this file, in the skin file, in the
initPage() function I added the module: $out->addModules('ext.MorroHun');

Everything is ok with the page appearance, but it's incredibly slow. Maybe 
doesn't ResourceLoader cache the generated compressed CSS and JS files on 
server side? Unfortunately the server doesn't have any caching facility (APC, 
memcache etc.).

I googled a lot how RL caches the results on server side but I didn't find 
anything.

Sincerely,
Ákos Szőts
