Comment(by nickm):
Generating DH groups can take minutes to tens of minutes on hardware where
RSA key generation takes only tiny fractions of a second. They're very
different operations.
Also, rotating your DH groups frequently is even weirder than rotating
your client-visible TLS keys frequently; I worry that we'd stand out lots.
