Dimi Paun (CC'ed) set up/runs the wiki, so he'd be the guy to ask. Other people have discussed MoinMoin/alternatives before, but to my knowledge, there hasn't been much effort put into changing it.
Thanks for the suggestion. I've looked into the moinmoin code a little more, and Dimi already switched out the cgi module. Besides possibly updating to a newer version and adding Xapian search, there may not be much more that can be done on the software end.
Ubuntu wiki is fast and it apparently uses moinmoin so it could just be server resources too. If that's the case then moinmoin is probably still the best choice: uses python, no database required, customizable, and it seems to be the main alternative to MediaWiki.
On a side note, is there any talk of moving the wiki code from the sourceforge CVS repo to a Git one at WineHQ someday?

P.S. Sorry about the word-wrapping in my last email. Yahoo zigged when I thought it would zag.
