Re: Speed Issues

seems like you have a crappy hard drive ;)

on a few production sites, even with pretty big forms, I remember the page
load times being a second or less. do you have a php accelerator and is
caching enabled?

I haven't begun this discussion yet on the list, but is there a reason you
haven't considered rails? I'm in the process of cataloging the binarycloud
codebase to decide what should be ported and what isn't necessary given
the infrastructure in rails. Interestingly, our best ideas cannot be found
in any other framework, which makes me happy... so I'm going to have a
good transtion plan soon which I will publish.

Once you use rails and ruby, PHP feels... dirty ;) PHP5 for me was a huge
disappointment. It's a pathetic upgrade to a language that was already
showing its structural problems. Once they decided not even to include
namespaces, for me it was a question of Py or Ruby... and rails clinched
it. Python is great, but there's no killer web framework for it. (Manuel
will disagree with me ;)

Keep in mind you're hearing this from someone who played a large part in
developing the concepts behind binarycloud, but once you've done a project
with rails there is really no other toolset you're interested in using
anymore. That said, rails is still young and needs a lot of the ideas we
developed and perfected here. For those of us that make our living doing
web apps, I think it would be best to port our (very cool) toolset to
rails, create gems from them, and have at it in rails.
