I have tested this by preloading text from a file then shoving it into the HTML renderer. But as soon as we start to query sword for text from a module we take a significant performance hit. Its only if I turn off all the extra features in the text such as strong's numbers or footnotes in ESV that things are very fast. Perhaps you can look at how we are pulling text from sword and see if there is something wrong with our methodology? > Just trying to pass the buck until someone PROVES to me that we need > optimization in the engine. :) > I understand that all too well. ;-)
