Comment (by boonebgorges):

 In [changeset:"7898"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="7898"
 Introduce $args param to BP_Groups_Group constructor and
 groups_get_group()

 This argument array can contain the following toggles:
 - update_meta_cache (pre-fetch all group metadata for the queried group)
 - populate_extras (pre-fetch last activity, admin/mod lists, and current
 user
   access/membership status in queried group)

 Both items default to false, for backward compatibility

 Allowing these pre-fetch toggles to be set to false allows us to avoid
 large
 numbers of unnecessary database queries in certain cases, such as when
 secondary avatars are populated on activity directories.

 See #5398
