Gravatar is sweet, but waiting for gravatar.com images to load can
slow page rendering times. Maybe this will change with 2.0, but just
in case...
Has anyone thought about caching these things?
- When first rendering a page, check gravatars for users linked to
current view
- If a user has a gravatar, cache it locally (and tie to user model,
so cached gravatar can be used globally)
- When page is requested again, use cached gravatars
- If a user with no cached gravatar makes a new comment, check for
gravatar and cache if exists
- If gravatar age exceeds cache threshold (15 min, 1 hour, etc.),
update gravatar
Best,
Patrick
