Bug Description

This is a bug for the Ubuntu (community) wiki on wiki.ubuntu.com. The wiki on this site is very, very slow. Searching, opening, and editing pages is reasonably fast, and isn't really a problem. However, make user preferences changes takes forever. If I try to change my preferred theme, it takes several minutes after clicking the Save button before the page finishes loading and the new theme takes effect. I am not familiar with MoinMoin, so I'm not sure where the problem would be, but it seems to me that something related to the user database must be borked.

As told by bdmurray on #ubuntu-bugs, I rejected this bug for the ubuntu product, and assigned it to the ubuntu-website product.

Thanks for your bug. Changing user preferences is very slow for me too so I'll confirm the bug.

This is a bit mysterious. It *might* be the launchpad authentication integration code doing something unexpected (like accidentally retrieving a list of all the wiki users from Launchpad when you save preferences), although that seems unlikely.

Unfortunately I don't have time to look at this at the moment, but I'll subscribe to the bug and offer any advice I can.

Wiki was upgraded and moved to a new authentication system a while back. Things are better now.
