Re: speed improvement idea: path caching

I meant to also mention that there is a bit of a problem with path caches for any type that maintains arrays of paths (like plugins). $smarty->plugins_dir(user_path, smarty_path); assume the path cache is built while user_dir has nothing in it. If I want to then override a smarty plugin, simply placing it in the user dir does not work since the path cache will already have an entry for the plugin. I would have to invalidate the path cache which Monte suggests would mean deleting the compile directory. I consider the compile dir a base installation issue, but the plugins I see as a user issue. Indeed, I do not keep the compile dir in a user accessible path, so needing to rebuild the smarty path cache for user directory changes represents a maintanence issue (for me). xo boots __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
