Today we released a major upgrade to the system that involved changes to over 331 files. This involved reworking many of the core files that load up thread listings, thread pages, etc. The update reworks much of our core system that optimizes what sort of MySQL queries get generated. The impact should be quite noticeable speed-wise. I took some before and after snapshots of how long it took to load certain pages on Ozzu:
| Page | Speed Before | Speed After |
|---|---|---|
| Home Page | 3.68s | 0.26s |
| Questions | 0.45s | 0.29s |
| Thread | 0.45s | 0.30s |
| Profile | 1.61s | 0.37s |
| Tags | 0.95s | 0.54s |
You won't really notice any feature changes with Ozzu on this update, the goal was to make everything load quicker. With that said here what has been worked on the last couple of months:
