I think you are talking about pre-render vs post-render of a text. In both case you use a filter or processor to transform the raw text into html (or other format). afaik, most efficient is pre-render. You just create an extra field non-editable by the user, e.g. class Foo(...) text = TextField() text_html = TextField() And using pre-save signal for Foo model you can process the raw text and store it in text_html field. When you display the rendered text you just show text_html field in your templates.
