For sysops it's much faster. There's a rollback button so it takes about a minute to revert all the changes, at most - thanks to tab browsing :)

I fixed the last ones. I hadn't realised non-sysops didn't have rollback until Yoghurt informed me.

I've implemented an extended SpamRegex, so we can synchronise with Wikipedia's blacklist.
You can see the Blacklist I did not yet found time to implement it with the Wiki database, so for now, you will have to PM me, Zach or Tyreth for updating.
(Note for Zach and Tyreth: just update public_html/SpamPatterns.txt accordingly)

The spamcheck was too CPU heavy, making editing large pages a pain.
I've disabled it for now.

Spamcheck is now used only for anonymous edits; so, if you spend minutes waiting for your edit to be accepted, just create an account.
So far, Spambots do not seem to register when they can edit pages anonymously.
