Re: Speaking of which... Why is the Picture Gallery so slow?

Actually, I think what you're noticing for the most part is that the image server takes a bit more time to connect to the db. Opening the main gallery page is completely limited by the time of the db connect. I noticed that same thing a long time ago and put in some timers, it's all in the connect. That connect time also affects the image display script. Yes, static image links would be somewhat faster, but it also makes logging image displays and controlling bandwidth usage difficult. Thus far, bandwidth has not been a real issue, but if someone put in an image that got 10 zillion hits in a day, it'd kill the server. We have to have some way to load that bandwidth and turn it off if needed. Agreed, it's not the most elequent solution, but it works.
