I'm not certain what has caused our load spikes at pair, but I think some
kind of rate-limiting of requests from a single IP would help a lot. I
don't think moin's page rendering is very expensive.  (Moin does some
caching anyway: http://moinmo.in/MoinCaching)

If you can re-host our wiki somewhere, that might be the best solution.  I
agree, neither of the current proposals really do it.
