[TurboGears] Re: is identity slow?

[Jeff Watkins]

Identity does the following for *every* HTTP request that is handled by TurboGears (CherryPy): load the user's secret token load the user record and compute the user's groups and privileges update the user's secret token expiration date One of the things I'm thinking of doing is modifying the current SqlObjectIdentityProvider to use SQL statements rather than SQLObject directly. I would expect this to be *much* faster. I don't know what priority Kevin puts on this, but I'm willing to make this a post 0.9 or even post 1.0 fix. (I'm a little busy at the moment.)

For an unlogged user the whole page tales 0.2 sec and it uses the database more than identity may need.
