Because wget got trapped to such a wiki recently I have true
figures:
-Document is about 20 MB (with duplicate files I'm sure)
-docu/index.php/ directory with Special:Recentchangeslinked/ etc subdirs
is 63 MB
-The whole wiki at docu/ is 13.5 GB with 1,600,000 files
20 MB vs 13.5 GB makes me think the wiki is not of the best technology.
The download software could be better as well. I will mail my
suggestions to wget list.

Definitely take a look at mediawiki: http://www.mediawiki.org/
Many wiki pages have both the current wiki pages and the control pages
at the same directory. Then wget may download multiple GBs(!!) of
control pages instead of 200 MB of wiki pages.
