--- Comment #32 from Bawolff <[email protected]> 2011-02-14 21:05:22 UTC --- Please, lets not turn this into a re-iteration of the 150 odd comments on bug 6455. >(why it's expensive is a mystery, it should be much >cheaper to find if something exists than to transclude it, since transclusion >needs to determine if the thing exists anyway) Presumably because it involves a DB hit (in comparison to {{#if which does not). Transclusions aren't parser functions, so can't really fall into the expensive /parser functions/ category. Presumably people also tend to only use transclusions when they want to actually include a page, they don't use it as part of the hidden logic of a template. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
