A simple include should be faster than a PTV, and you can speed up your page if you have less includes. That means, your data is split into a smaller total number of wiki pages. See also the $PageListCacheDir variable that allows you to cache the result of pagelists and speed up the processing. http://pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/PagelistVariables#PageListCacheDir All pagelist cache is removed if any wiki page changes, so if your wiki is very often edited, this may not be faster (on pmwiki.org it is disabled for the same reason), but for sites that have many visits between edits it is good. Also note that a pageist is fastest with a trail of pages (even no need to cache it). It is in the form (:pagelist trail=Group.ListOfPages fmt=#include:) .
