I've seen what I think is you on the DPL manual talk pages, so hopefully you might know this.

I'm using a lot of DPL for a forum archive listing. The template I'm using for the table rows is runescape:Template:Archiverow with the usage of said template on runescape:RuneScape:Forum Archives/2013. The problem is when you have a lot of uses of the template, such as runescape:RuneScape:Forum Archives/2009. Often I found the pageload to be so severe I had to check Recent Changes to see if the edit had been submitted.

In some cases, DPL is making 600+ individual 'calls' for as many pages. Would it be better to have one 'call' for 600 pages in terms of pageload? Even I can see it's causing strain on the servers to load even one of the pages, let alone the full list which I'm beginning to doubt anyone can load.
