This is not 100% correct. swerc is executed for each request, but the
rendered result is cached in the filesystem already. Only if a
timestamp of some .md file changes, the fs cache entry is invalidated.

Well executing swerc for each request is still overhead. But for the
sake of not doing weirdo stuff (like hiding .html or redirecting from
previously known URL to some .html file) in order to keep all the
links to suckless.org intact, I'm not inclined to disable the swerc
approach atm.

Broken links or always changing URLs suck. The execution of swerc
doesn't hurt too much. And if it does, it is not swerc to blame, but
lunix.
