Poor Actinic Performance

[wjcampbe]

Odd - Im not seeing any of these problems. I have a few sites with over 1000 single product pages and they run with no problems at all. It may be due to a difference in the way the pages are built as there are several different ways of doing it.

And the more Actinic features are used correctly the faster it loads?

This is very true IMO - Im a great fan of not messing with the way Actinic works and it always amazes me how much people insist on hacking sites about for very little gain.

As you say Bill anything out the ordinary will require the Actinic "brain" to work harder

I'm sorry you feel that George, but I don't want to run the risk of repeating what has already been written elsewhere. Our number one priority at the moment is performance and reliablity, and 8.5.2 will see performance improvements in some, but not all, areas. Once 8.5.2 is out, we'll review the outstanding performance issues and deal with them.

Just thought that the thread originator needed an official `we're working on it` type assurance from Actinic. No disrespect meant to anyone else that replied obviously.

Might be an idea to see what causes the most problems? Number of pages, settings in the marketing for products, choices, etc. Thay way people can avoid or at least make a calculated decision for what is best for their site, based on Actinics performance.

I believe that the worst offenders are using external linked variables and having large numbers of sections.
