MODERATORS
The bots scrape costly endpoints like the entire edit histories of every page on a wiki. You can't always just cache every possible generated page at the same time.
Of course you can. This is why people use CDNs.
Put the entire site on a CDN with a cache of 24 hours for unauthenticated users.
