Hi, > > I made a function to sort a folder list (with childs/parents), I know it must be a silly method I use but it was the only one I could think of at the time. > The problem I now have is that is is very slow.

Also I don't quite understand what you are doing here, it seems that you are doing many many time the same sort, while the aruments to sort doesn't change. At least I can't see in your code where you change %parentlist or %node. So the first thing to do is to move these sort out of the loop and perform them _before_ the loop, save the result in a array and use this as argument to foreach. This should speed up your code many times (unless I have overseen something). Maybe there are more constant operation that could be moved out of the loop. Since I have to less knowlegde of your datastructure, I can't say if there are more optimaziation possible. > Then I remebered I read something about a bug or problem with embperl 2.x and hashes. I cannot find it anymore but I use embperl 1.3b5 on redhat 7.2 (but same on redhat 6.1) > That has nothing to do with Perl hash. That was about some hashs that Embperl 2 uses internaly and that only occurs if you have very huge iteration of the same html code. BTW. If you are using 1.3b5 I would recommend to update 1.3.4, but that's up to you and has nothing to do with you problem.
