Returns 10-20ms consistently on i7-4770k, on shared hosts the cost
could easily reach 40ms
This code simply calculates the strings
/categories
/guidelines
/tos
/privacy
It is ludicrous to spend this enormous amount of work just to calculate
4 strings.
I do not know if this is something specific about Discourse or a bug in
Rails (I tried without the main_app prefix and got similar results),
regardless we can got to avoid these _path APIs for now
Discovered this when running a flamegraph on our home page.
Our plugins use rails engines which are mounted against the main
application's `ApplicationController`. This works great but path helpers
need to reference `main_app` in order for it not to blow up.

Added the site setting long_polling_base_url , this allows you
to farm long polling to a different server.
This setting is very important if a CDN is serving dynamic content.
