The Page Admin is slow because its loading a huge tree via jQuery - the only way to fix this would be to hack up django-cms and make each node load on demand (the only obvious way).

The server is slow and I think its tied to the same issue - our 1000+ pages.
I can't find the page right now - but djangocms caches the treemenu to speed up page load (This takes > 200 queries and is super slow, but only happens once). My hunch is that the website is being hit so infrequently that everyone's first visit is causing this cache refresh and slowing things down tremendously. Using something like JohnnyCache might solve the problem...
