Improving performance on English server: when the

we replace the text of all the Special pages with:

Removing Recent Changes functionality removes most of the
functionality for me as an editor...taking it down would be almost as
bad as the current molasses we're in.
A much better suggestion would be to fix the code. My completely
unhelpful suspicion is that it's PHP's fault. But I'm a perl bigot, so
take it for what it's worth. I'm just not surprised we're having
problems.
