CakePHP is slow! Well not really... Cake is fine, but I'm a bit slow
some times. I have seen several people complain about cake speeds, but
I have never experienced a problem... Till now. Some of them/you may
have had a bad directory structure. If you are missing the sub folders
in the app/tmp folder, you will suffer from really slow page requests.

So if your cake app seems really slow, make sure you have the
following directories:
app/tmp/cache
app/tmp/sessions
app/tmp/logs
app/tmp/tests

I wonder if anyone has submitted a ticket for this yet?

Following is the unabridged version:

I set up a new site by copying the app folder from another project. I
did not copy the tmp folder, since I knew it would contain dozens of
extra files. I manually created the tmp folder but neglected to create
the necessary sub folders.

I then set about baking some files and creating some new layouts. When
I tried out the app a couple days later, it was slow. Really SLOW!
Even simple page loads that didn't access the database would take > 3
seconds.

So I started tearing everything down... removing components and
helpers and elements... Nothing helped. Then I did what I should have
done to begin with; I baked a whole new project (I love the new bake
console in 1.2.0.5xxx). I then moved my files over one at a time. I
had everything copied and my load time was still < 0.15. So I used win
merge to compare the two app directories and the I saw the missing tmp
folders in the old app folder. Like I said, I'm a bit slow some times.

The moral of the story:
Always bake your cake!
