Hello Oleg, Everyone,
Sorry for the delay in replying.. "real life" sort of got in the
way. Deepest apologies for that.
When I benchmarked the SQLObject page of 7000+ objects (give or take
a few hundred), I got the 80-90 seconds. With plain python objects, I
got the 0.3 seconds (obviously a lot less going on, so, not surprising
there). However, when I took out the evals inside sqlobject/main.py, I
got the page speed to around 15-20 seconds.
So, this raises the question, is it perhaps better to -not- use
eval(..) and instead tinker with the objects __attributes__ or __dict__
? I am not -that- conversant/knowledgeable in pythons black magic of
object meta programming but.. I definitely think that if we can get away
from calling 'evals' when doing object instantiation that would be a
HUGE performance win.
And, in the process of putting my money where my mouth is, I am more
than willing to donate $200 bounty for the fix, either to the person or
charity of their choosing.
Seriously :)
Regards and thanks
Stef
(ps. I -do- have a large PNG of the system during a single 'page
impression'. It's about 7mb .. I can send it offlist if your interested ?)
