Unless you get it to cache translations:-) For example via a wrapper
script like this one:

  http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/css/bin/cache-transform

which would be invoked like this:

  cache-transform translate-ne-en wget-to-fetch-translation-of-stdin

The wget incantation will need some work, but it will retrieve the cached
translation text if handed the same input text, so revisiting an
on-the-fly-translation message should become cheaper.
