Yes, and that helps with a lot of stuff, but there are some of the dark
corners of the wiki that seem to have stats etc. that take an age & lots of
CPU to generate.  I'll have to go through the logs to find them though as I
have *no idea* how to find them legitimately!

I was using throttling but it isn't enough - the server can easily support a
few dozen users (probably hundreds, but the bandwidth maxes out before it
gets that far) just viewing pages, but the CPU intensive pages are an
exception to the rule... two or three idiots can bring the server to a
complete halt.
