Yup, that's the thing.

It reportedly speeds things up, but I really wanted to try some other
alternatives instead, rather than just disable the page age checking
altogether. It may be that eventually we just remove the code, but I

It's not a problem, though. It might actually make some people
_happier_. I just hadn't meant to ;)
