[wp-testers] 2.7 is slow?!?

[Kirk M]

Okay, in my previous testing of 2.7, even without Gears enabled, the 2.7 
(nightly builds) Admin in the past has been significantly faster than 
the 2.6 series until the very last few builds. The Admin seems to grind 
to a halt at times and other times it just crawls between pages. It even 
caused my server to trip a "CPU quota exceeded" error and I haven't seen 
that for over a year (I was merely switching from one Admin page to 
another).

Now this morning I did an update via the "Stay Updated" link in the 
Admin footer as I usually do (never had a problem with this, by the way) 
and things seem to be moving right along once more with only a couple of 
exceptions. These occurred while attempting to navigate to the 
"Settings/General" page from the Dashboard and then again when 
navigating to the "Comments" page. I had to click on the link twice to 
kick it out of a perpetual loading state (Firefox 3.0.3). Also, after 
the auto upgrade was complete, I noticed that the text in the Admin 
footer went from a revision number to "2.7 Beta-1".

The only entry in my root error log and wp-admin error log when this 
"slowness" occurs is simply "ARRAY"--that's it.
