[Self-platform-dev] performance

[Wouter Tebbens]

Dear development team and TEG,

although the platform has been improved functionally a lot lately, we 
still observe a really slow response time. And that is not only for 
importing or exporting SCORM files. Simply opening a page for 
collections or a course can take serious time. And more so, when editing 
and saving a lesson or other LO. Many people have observed this, and I 
think it is important to address if we want to make SELF succesful. 
Internet users want instant gratification, as Niyam Bhushan once told us 
during the SELF Board meeting in Mumbai.

What are the ways we can approach this best?

I understand that work has been done on a caching module. Could someone 
explain what the experience and status of that is?

Do we have information on memory usage, processor usage? I am supposing 
we are far from using their capacity to the full 100%, with still few 
concurrent users.

With respect to concurrent users, how are the experiences so far?

I look forward for your comments on this important aspect.

Tomorrow some of us will be meeting online at address@hidden 
 between 12 and 14:00 CET so we can do some more test drives and 
discussion.

best,

Wouter
