Magnus - I checked out your tool, but it looks like you're using a query
against the categorylinks table?  Have you played with setting up a new
table for categories and fulltext indexing it?  Use group_concat to get all
of a pages categories into one field, then create a fulltext index on that
field.  You get much better performance than using the categorylinks table
(kind of weird, eh?)
Are you pinging a live database, or a copy made from a dump? (please excuse
my ignorance if this is common knowledge)

I'm working on dummying up a UI using the same approach (fulltext index of
categories) on wikidweb and will write back when I've got something worth
looking at...

Best Regards,
Aerik
