    hi everybody,

    as the title says, i’m wondering what’s influencing the speed for opening a ressource in the manager?

    i got one MODx Evo 1.0.2 installation where some pages immediately ( without even displaying the spinner gif ) open and some others take 1to 2 seconds. for testing purposes i also disabled all plugins, selected a blank template and untied the ressource from all tvs, but the speed was about the same ... not that it is too slow, i’m just wondering & curious

    PHP Version 5.2.9
    Database Version 5.1.33-community


    thanks, j

    okay, forgot one important factor - the browser. i tested with FF3.5 and a bit faster with Chrome and way faster with Safari 4. so the javascript engine takes the most important role

      Interesting question. Maybe the server speed/resources available play into the equation?

        If you’re just interested in why it sometimes takes so long to render a view, the Speed Tracer extension for chrome is excellent. TinyMCE can slow things down.

          If you’re on a shared server or a shared internet connection, it may depend on what else is going on a the time each request goes in.
