Subject: [PATCH] Avoid processing the_content when o2_process_the_content is
 false

This method isn't using the `o2_process_the_content` filter which can cause a significant speed issue when the content filters are being run in a context that doesn't require the metadata - such as within a shortcode output in the middle of the page.
