Forum OpenACS Development: Response to permission_p revisited

Collapse
Posted by Andrew Grumet on
Hmm...interesting.  In our case we don't have permission_p in
the where clause, we're just getting a list of id's and
permission_p for each one.  Example: we display on the
homepage a list of classes I am taking.  We want to display a
little "admin" link to the administration page for each clas I am a
professor for.  So we compute whether or not I have admin
privilege for each class.  This can can maybe half a second per
row, bogging things down if I happen to be a professor for a
number of classes.

How long does an average permission check take on your
system?
