Its taking 15 seconds to build up a SAEF!

As an added bonus, adding use_live_url=no and include_jquery=no has NO effect.

If someone can point me in the direction of the module that answers the ACT=saef, i can have a rummage and try to diagnose the issue, but im actually stumped trying to find the offending code!

Ok.

expressionengine/libraries/Actions.php

Line 115 seems to be the offender.

However, you’ll like this…. send some hypertext first, eg

echo " ";

right before

$query = $EE->db->get('modules');

and this speeds up the execution HUGELY.

Lol, brilliant.

If you

echo " ";

ANYWHERE in the EE_Actions() function, it runs faster.

Traced further to line 195.

The

saef_filebrowser method is the cause.

Now onto why.

mod.channel_standalone.php > function saef_javascript()

LOOKS like its the culprit, using microtime() to time output.

Microtime shows me some interesting results, completely not what id expect type results.

Start : 0.52700300 1289226825

End : 0.52835700 1289226825

Which is obviously, really fast.

Getting to the point of total bafflement.

The faulty code:

Script: mod.channel_standalone.php 
Line: 1348 
Code: $this->EE->output->set_header('Content-Length: '.strlen($output));

What you’d do to speed it up? Dunno.

Ditch it, its faster without it.

Additional thoughts:

Doing an echo caused automatic headers to be sent by apache.

I ruled out strlen() being slow, by manually setting the content length, the script was no faster.

With the header, its slow. Without it, its fast. Why? Not a scooby doo.

Triad,

Thanks for your testing I am pinging the devs on this one.

Can you tell me the version and build of EE you are using and whether you are using any add-ons?
What sort of environment are you hosted on?

Ubuntu LAMP setup…

We’re using build 20100712.

Thanks for the heads up, will keep an eye on this post.

Sidenote: Is there any way i can get permissions for my own account to post in here, rather than posting as my employer?

Triad,

Can you please perform a version update and see if there’s any change?

I did some more extensive research into this problem and create a new bug report here: https://support.ellislab.com/bugs/detail/14720/

Rob, thanks for posting the bug report. Let’s see what the dev team has to say about it.
