Visually DPI represents dots per inch - it's a measure of density in

I need to insert the new li menu reference before the closing /ul.

So rather than caching several

Let me first measure the time it takes, and see if it is worth.
I've measured my process, and it takes an average of 300 ms for a menu

Not really a problem on my sites, although I'm considering building an
HTML version every time the menu is updated.
--
But still, it's hard to believe that dynamically generating
a menu 2,500 times is even close to as good as simply cfincluding
a page with the menu code 2,500 times.
In my case, this would represent about 12 min processing time per day,
I suppose the 2500 pages will not be requested the same
Got any computations on processing a cfinclude an equivalent
amount of times?
Exactly, I measure the time BEFORE and AFTER the build menu template is

The average is about 350 ms.
I guess this would be too much for a million pages per day site,
