           Summary: Loading times for sites with flagicons in non-english
                    wikis
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal

Since around half a year there are significant differences in loading and
saving times in different language versions for pages with a lot of flagicons.
In the English wikipedia, all things are working well. Opening/saving a version
of the same page in the German wikipedia, the loading and saving times are much
longer (often more than 30 seconds). Often the saving process finishes with an
error message. The comparison of pages in the version history is in the German
Wikipedia for such pages nearly impossible.
Example:
[[:de:Swiss Open (Badminton)]] - loading time of the page 30 seconds;
[[:en:Swiss Open (badminton)]] - loading time of the page 2 seconds;

A similar page without flagicons loads within a second, example
[[:de:(Schweizer Meisterschaft (Badminton)]]. 

Another example: [[:de:Scottish Open (Badminton)]]  - loading time of the page
110 seconds; 
[[:en:List of Scottish Open champions in badminton]] - 2 seconds

After editing the German version of the page Scottish Open (Badminton), the
saving process takes around 45 seconds and finishes with an error message:
Our servers are currently experiencing a technical problem. This is probably
temporary and should be fixed soon. Please try again in a few minutes.
