Hi,
CPSDefault.utils.getFolderContents causes a big performance problem on a
site
we installed. A subsection containing about 4000 documents takes some 40
secondes to display for a 'SectionReader' user, versus 7 seconds for the
Manager.
The profiler points out one main culprit: getRolesInContext (and also
DateTime's _parse_args). (*)
My first try was to give the View permission to the Authenticated role
in the
subsection instead of using a SectionReader local role, but there wasn't
much
improvement. After reading CPSDefault.utils.filterContents, the reason
is obvious:
{{{
# filter non effective or expired published content
if not _checkPermission(ModifyPortalContent, item):
review_state = wtool.getInfoFor(item, 'review_state',
'nostate')
if review_state == 'published':
doc = item.getContent()
if now < doc.effective() or now > doc.expires():
continue
}}}
(_checkPermission could be pushed down in the tests; but I'm not sure
whether
that would be much more efficient. The dates tests may also be costly.)
After my colleague remarked that searches were much quicker (~ 5
seconds, and
with a more complex display), we tried to force using
getCatalogFolderContents, and lo! folder_view became 8 times faster.
So I'd like to know
* How to systematically use getCatalogFolderContents instead of
getFolderContents (in a clean way :) ) -- I'm not yet comfortable with CPS
views' many levels of inclusion
Using the ZMI add a boolean property to the portal named
'use_catalog_for_folder_contents' with a True value.
* Why it's not the case already (I've had incomplete indexes, but assume
it's
my fault)
It is a bit slower if you have only few items in a folder.
* Bonus question: can one sort on several indexes -- i.e. some of my
documents
have a specific field which should be used as a default sort key; how to
get
also documents of other types?
I think you need to replace the default sort on position_in_container
with 2 sort keys: your new index first then position_in_container.
