Hello,
I often stumble over people who stumble over problems when it comes to
handling the templates_c-folder: Files can not be created (because of
safe_mode-restrictions) or files cannot be deleted (because there is
only ftp-access as a different user than the webserver is).
These problems are easy to solve for experienced users, but hard for
beginners. I think the speed benefit of use_sub_dirs=true
vs. use_sub_dirs=false is only measurable when a huge number of
templates is used (maybe caused by a database-resource) or when
caching with a reasonable number of cache_ids is done. IMHO, these two
are advanced uses of smarty and people who do things like that can be
expected to turn use_sub_dirs on explicitely.
Shouldn't Smarty come with $use_sub_dirs=false as default?
greetings
messju
