How about SUPER CACHE!

Seriously, while I agree with Karl and Pain in that scanning the directory structure shouldn't take that long, I have a ton of directories and sub directories and blah blah blah. It would be great to have some sort of "Super Cache" mode that allowed the creation of the XML file so that it was generated each time someone visited the site.

I ~think~ it would increase loading speed.

With that said, I also think that it should be an add-one product and not part of the core. Sell it for an additional 10$!

Seriously, I have been thinking of this for a long time already. Its just quite a hige change to the gallery/admin infrastructure. We hope to be addressing something like this for release 2.2. Like you say, it will simply be an XML cache system.

Would be cool seeing the loading improved like mentioned for instance with this xml method.

My Gallery is quite big (48.500+ pics) and well the initial loading actually takes to looong. Once it's loaded it works like a breeze but that initial load causes a lot of drama for my visitors.

If that can be improved theis gallery will rock even more

Hmm did you noticed any performance increase after last update?

Hey Pain.

Well just did a timing of Imagevue version 2.1
Initial loading of the Flash gallery takes about 25 - 30 seconds.
After that initial load it's smooth sailing allll the way.
Loading a differnt folder takes 1 - 3 secs depending on the amount of pics.

Admin still takes ... 50 - 60 secs for initial login and switching pages in between for instance manage to settings or settings to themes also takes that amount of time.

Hope this gives you some indication.

Further sweet looking release really liking the changes in the admin section (look and feel is even better now )

Actually we have built-in timer, to use it you have to install Firebug Firefox extension from getfirebug.com and enable Console for your site.

Well Ihave Firebug :p
have turned on the console for my site.But how do I see the timer then :p
Sorry iff that's a dumb question

Err. sorry, forgot to mention that you need FirePHP too:

Installed it but how do I get the built in timer to display ?
Then I will be able to give you guys more information

Just enable Console for this site and you can see something like this:

Thats the problem spot I guess

yes, that is a tender spot ...

I hope we can work out some XML cache mode sooner than later ...

Would be really cool
Anyway that's the persistent spot.
hope it helped out anything
