Hello! Based on the idea of Goba, i did some measurement on user notes.
Goba's idea is: We can save resources if we pregenerate formatted notes, and stores that content instead the raw notes. At this time every note requires a preg_replace, and a highlight_php() filter. If we move clean_note() from phpweb to rsync.php.net's update-user-notes, we can store pregenerated notes. Bat these savings comes with user notes size growing. I made a little script to demonstrate this size difference. It can be checked at: http://phphost.hu/notes/ At this time, modified notes requires about 85% more diskspace (~6.5 MB). This size difference can be increase if more notes gets colorized. So, the question is: what is better... - Leave everything uncanged, and let PHP to do modifications (preg_replace, highlighting) on the fly. - Change update-user-notes to send pregenerated notes to mirrors, and save processor resources on all the phpweb mirrors. Is anyone against that modification? Cece
