[Koha-devel] Deprecating the Non-XSLT display on Detail and Search/List Results

[Jonathan Druart]

I tried to compare the load time difference between the 2 views:

1/ OPACXSLTDetailsDisplay empty

for i in {1..10}; wget "http://opac.koha.vm/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=d"

2/ OPACXSLTDetailsDisplay set to default

for i in {1..10}; wget "http://opac.koha.vm/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=d"

Retrieve the time from the Apache access log:

sum_empty=`tail -n 20 koha-opac-access.log | head -n 10 | sed
's/.*time=\(.*\)/\1/g' | tr -s "\n" "+"`"0"; echo $sum_empty | bc

sum_default=`tail -n 10 koha-opac-access.log | sed
's/.*time=\(.*\)/\1/g' | tr -s "\n" "+"`"0"; echo $sum_default | bc

And I got the same values: 11812116 vs 11800376 ~ 1.1s per page loaded

I expected a more important load time with XSLT enabled.
