The wiki is plenty fast. Pages are generated in about 1 second.  If
you really want fast pages, then the proper way to do it is to
implement caching.

The wiki is an integral part of OpenNIC operations, and serves as our
technical repository.  It would be a colossal waste of time (not to
mention a step backwards) to convert all our content to static HTML.
