During the past few weeks I've been doing an awful lot of code-cleanup, and optimization as I prepare to *finally* release the stable version of Theia. I've made a whole hell of a lot of progress, but I still am not to the point where I want to be before the stable release.

 

Though I have not experienced any performance issues with Theia yet, as I look at the numbers (database queries, memory usage and library includes) I see there is an awful lot of room for improvement.

 

Thus, I have come up with the following goals which I am aiming for with this big release:

 

Obviously, all of this is completely relative. First of all, the execution time I get probably won't be what the average Theia site gets since I have a wicked fast web server with little traffic.

 

And the query count and library includes are being optimized for use with memcache. Now while the entire system will perform a lot better, systems with memcache will benefit a great deal more. :)

 

Of course these numbers could always be better, but because of the massive scope and size of Theia, I think this is a really good starting point to aim for. So far things are definitely on the right track as I've managed to bring almost all of the numbers down a good deal.

 

I don't want to state any estimated release because I haven't been able to live up to that in the past - instead I'll just go with "it's ready when it's ready"! ;P
