Comment (by spacedmonkey):

 @LinSoftware Before, `_prime_post_caches` was called, meaning for a site
 with 60k worth of pages, that would load all the post objects ( including
 post content ) and post meta and terms. But this code avoids using
 `_prime_post_caches` and just caches the post parents, which is an int.

 60k work of ints in an array is large, but I do not believe we would be
 hitting memory limits.

 I believe it maybe impossible to remove the posts_per_page being set to
 -1, as this might be a breaking change.

 Out of interest, are you using a object caching plugin that supports
 wp_cache_get_multiple?
