Hi
Yes to all a happy new year!
Well I dont post just for that. This is something about a feature (or a bug?)
I'm so happy to run a private server. A disadvantage is that i'm doing far too big image sets. Say 1500 large jpg's at a time ( I mean evening, not a click). I must confess performance is not perfect for this.
When generating thumbnails. each post we run through all subdirs looking for files. After all 1500 files we're almost through with execution time (sure increasing that helps :-? ) Then let's start doing the thumbs.
I stumbles upon this because of errors passing by, those jpg's had size 0. Every time generating 40 more those same errors came across taking most of the precious 30 seconds.
Maybe it's an idea to cache locations of the first say 40 files in some session and then, after the button, do 40 thumbnails. After that, get 40 more file locations?
