 In `wp_dashboard_recent_posts()`, `cache_results` is set to `false` which
 means the `WP_Query` can't benefit of
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2022/10/07/improvements-to-wp_query-
 performance-in-6-1/ the performance changes in 6.1]. I couldn't find a
 reason why this specific query shouldn't be cached.

 The widget was added in [26144] as `dashboard_show_published_posts()` and
 renamed to `wp_dashboard_recent_posts()` in [26690]. `cache_results` was
 set in https://github.com/davemart-in/WordPress-3.8-Dashboard/pull/9/files
 before the merge.
