Another way to use Textile would be to write the Textile output to the database when the user submits. If possible, when the users comes back to edit the page, an html2textile filter should be used to populate the textarea.

This way Textile is only used when saving the page, not on every access.

WDYT?

With the input formats in Drupal >= 4.5 and the associated caching of nodes, this is no longer necessary.
