This makes me wonder if these high traffic Catalyst sites are using TT
or another templating solution. If they are using TT, it should be
very helpful if someone published a sort of TT performance guide. Or
at least a bulleted list with things not to do because I'm probably
doing them all, given the current (lack of) speed from my applications
without that much traffic. Any complex (or just plain big) page will
take around 3-4 seconds to render with 90% of that time being spent
with TT. The best work around was to use one of the caching plugins
where I could, but users still have to experience crappy load times
whenever something is updated on the database.
Thankfully, it's an internal system - so it's not *that* critical.
If template rendering speed might be a bottleneck for you, you may
want to investigate ClearSilver. I haven't tried it yet myself, but
I've heard good things about its performance, and there's already a
Cat View for it. Its a bit different than other systems though, in
that you explicitly define the structure of all of the data going to
your template in an external file.
