Maybe someone who understands the code issues at hand (i.e. not me) could summarise the options with the pros and cons outlined by the various people in this thread and we could have a small vote on each option to see if there's any clear consensus that we're missing. It might be the case that we all disagree on
our main preference but all share a second preference.

Not sure if someone is taking this task on. I'm not, but my normalized votes would be:

1. Remove the _temp_view facility completely, because you can use a temporary _design view, at which point you should understand the performance implications, and it cleans up the code.

  +1

2. Leave it as _temp_view, because it does the equivalent of view create/query/delete view in a single POST, and you can document the performance issue.

  +0.5

3. Change it to _slow_view, because compared to _temp_view, the name should act as an immediate warning for people who haven't read the documentation.

  -1
