My gallery page builds pretty slow... I have over 8000 of them. Every picture I've taken with the 9 digital cameras I've owned since August 1997. Will G2 be faster? Just curious My picture gallery: |

....be anything. i have one server with 5k+ smaller images (640x480) on a not very shared server that works fine. i also have gallery running on a private dedicated server, using my hi-res piks (1mb and up). about 1500 of them. that runs slow, but so does photoshop when playing with 20 odd 1 meg images at a time. its also a crap server. |

G2 is way faster for large galleries. I've tested it with 100,000 photos and had reasonable (1-2 second) page loads. I haven't yet done any optimizing so I expect that performance will increase when I find time to do an optimization pass. |

Way cool, guess I better download a daily build and give it a test drive!!!! I'm building a gallery now that will have 5000-10000 images. Any difference between netpbm and Image Magick for speed? |

It was running with a Celeron 2.4GHz and 1GB Ram ..... Now receiving around 300,000 - 400,000 page view per day. My site is based on heavily modified Gallery 1.3, so performance is not related to number of albums/photos I believe. My site is http://www.fotop.net, please feel free to take a look at it. |

8miles, what performance tweaks did you do to make 1.3 run so well. I only have around a few hundred albums and 25 000 pics and it runs like a dog Cheers |

Don't you find that some operations such as "move album / photo" is damn slow? Also, calling to album.php consumer huge amount of RAM? Is your "hits" means "pageviews", or http connect at your access_log? |

If you ported Gallery 1.x to SQL, you definately wasted your time. That's one of the main reasons we are writing G2, not to mention that would be a LARGE pain to write G1 to use SQL. |

I'm no php guru, so I think the best way to describe the problem is to say that it reads all albums that are stored in your gallery before it can move. That takes time, iostat goes wild, but it still works. We used to run on P3 450. That was really wild How to describe hits? I'll just give you something else.

You guys made a gallery that is simply the best. I like using it and I don't bitch about some problems, not just because it's free but because I have a lot of respect for people like you. People who wrote something and are trying to make it even better, spending their free time on something that matters not just for their own ass. I could go on... But that doesn't mean that others are wasting time trying to do something that would decrease the load. G2 is nice, but it's not even in alpha stage, so what can we do? Stop using gallery? Shut down our servers untill G2 is done? Come on... Luka |

italjet, I partially see what you're saying, but if you ever really take a look at how G1 works, porting it to use SQL would be such a pain for such a little reward in the future (G2). I'm not saying that they CAN'T do that -- it's their time, but I'm sure that if they really want to contribute to the Gallery project, that there are more productive jobs we can have them help with. Not to mention, if Bharat had someone who had enough time and skills to dedicate as to port G1 to SQL working on G2, he'd get it done many fold faster! |

I just do what I need for my own project, so I don't think my time is wasted. Actually I've try to study the source code of G2, and believe it or not, I like G1 more! I like the concept of using php serialized object for individual albums. I believe that loading dat(s) into memory is much faster than query results from several heavily joined tables contains HUGE amount of records. Of coz, SQL can help in some cases. So for some operations serialized object sicks, I use SQL. For operations serialized object is faster, I use serialized object. At least, my site is now hosting 600k+ photos without any performance problem. Most pages generated < 0.5 seconds with Zend engine. Anyway, Gallery is a very great product, my site can't live w/o it, thanks! |

But then again, there are other factors in life too. One would have his own priorities to worry about. But hey 8Mile, I am sure lot of people will be happy with some help from you. Just my 2 cents, |

having lots of thousands of pictures on a gallery first of all will sum up to a huge amount of disk space if you don't simply store lower quality pics. guys like 8miles have to consume huge amounts of bandwith. -- |
