Re: [Zope] Folder Listing as a Plone Portlet Mini-HOWTO (draft)

Mousing over each link pops up its description in browsers that understand the title anchor (A) tag attribute. Your comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated! Plone now uses catalog queries to build folder listings, it avoids waking up all objects and slow down the server response. Consider using it, your portlet as it is written now can slow down the browsing of a folder containing a large amount of objects.

I don't understand this. Would you point out the relevant documentation or source code? As it is, portlet_folder_contents is a hack and probably only suitable for small folders. In my case, I intended to use it to create a small box of links (no more than five or six), without having to go to the ZMI all the time to change the portlet's contents.
