I believe it is due to the number of instances of particular templates such as [[Template:Cite book]]. A simple test should be sufficient to demonstrate this. If I copy the current text of [[List of chess books, A-L]]] (oldid: <http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=407667664>) into a sandbox, it takes approximately 39.5 seconds to render according to the page source ("<!-- Served by srv195 in 39.529 secs. -->"), using ?action=purge (<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=407920835&action=purge>) while logged in. If I take the same text, put it through [[Special:ExpandTemplates]] and save it to my sandbox, it takes approximately 5.3 seconds to render according to the page source ("<!-- Served by srv273 in 5.353 secs. -->"), using ?action=purge (<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=407924303&action=purge>) while logged in. Special:ExpandTemplates, of course, full expands the templates, their ParserFunctions parser functions, and other magic word variables, while leaving the links. This makes it fairly clear that it is not the number of links that is to blame for the slow rendering time, but is instead the number of instances of particular templates. I'm updating the bug summary from "large pages with a lot of links still slow" to "Large pages with a high number of particular templates have unacceptably slow rendering time for logged in users" accordingly. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
