wsgi can cache tracker instance enabled by feature flag. Patch by Marcus Priesch caches a loaded tracker instance and reuse it for future client sessions. It is enabled by a feature flag in wsgi.py since it arrived during the 2.2.0 beta period. The provided wsgi.py is modified to enable it. Testing is run with flag enabled and disabled. Ralf Schlatterbeck and Marcus tested it on one of their larger more complex trackers and it sped up the response time to a client request by a factor of 3 (270ms down to about 80-85ms).

"""
wsgi-liveserver provides a simple LiverServerTestCase class that can be used to
help start a web server in the background to serve a WSGI compliant application
for use with testing. Generally it will be used in conjuction with something
like Selenium to perform a series of functional tests using a browser.
