At the moment, MathML formulas (those with the ugly TeX syntax in the <math>-tags) are converted to .png images new for every request. Why don't create the new images just only when a page with a MathML tag is getting edited? This would save server load (ATM the image server is nearly completely down) and would increase site speed much.
<math>\sqrt(x)</math> is http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/9/3/f/93ff70b227bb86258f9d807bed054015.png HEAD for this file is: [...] Last-Modified: Wed, 08 Mar 2006 01:58:11 GMT Client-Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2006 18:33:25 GMT [...] The file is not generated for each request, there's a huge number of cached formulas. And btw, TeX is \not ugly
