[Typo3] Performance issue with a template

[Steven Bagshaw]

One development - it appears that the overhead only appears where the system
needs to look up the page tree or an id. e.g. menus, tx_macinasearchbox etc.

Maybe I'm on to something now. I have just under 6000 pages. Does anyone
else have a situation like this?

Thanks,

Steven
