[pLog-svn] A terrible truth about plugin

[Mark Wu]

For my #1 test , my anti virus program still turned on. It really annoying. 

For #2 test, I just turned it off...

The anti virus program is kaspersky internet suite 7.0 ...

that's why there are 300ms difference between #1 and #2 test.

Back to to result, I think it quite intresting.....

Because we did not use page cache in admin page and only use smarty compiler
cache and DAO cache....

So, If our user add a lot of plugins, they will feel lifetype getting very
slow, especially in a heavy traffic site.

 It might help to get the plugin menu entries put into menu.xml and put the
plugin locales into core locale files..... they just save at least 200ms in
each request. Not bad :)

For index page, I think it is not a serious problem, because we have a very
good page cache here.
