Hi Guys,

Using zc 1.5.7c I remember there was a page parse time setting that showed some info in the footer on page reload. However, I cant find it anywhere. Not sure if I'm missing something somewhere or it has been removed.

If it's gone is there a plugin or another good way to see these metrics?

Thanks!

Whoops, Sorry! I have just found another thread. It has been removed since 1.5.7

The question seems to be what is the best method for displaying these metrics, I am trying to compare site/database speed on two different servers and would like some actual numbers I can forward to my hosting company

Thanks

do you know anything about the observer process in ZC?

create this file and place it in the admin observer directory to see them on the admin side or store facing observer directory to see on the store side. one or the other or both. as such:

includes/classes/observers/auto.parsetime_display.php
YOUR_ADMIN/includes/classes/observers/auto.parsetime_display.php

class zcObserverParsetimeDisplay extends base
{
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->attach($this, [
            'NOTIFY_ADMIN_FOOTER_END',
        ]);

        // do not register/attach for catalog-side if not enabled
        // if (!defined('DISPLAY_PAGE_PARSE_TIME') || DISPLAY_PAGE_PARSE_TIME != 'true') {
        //     return;
        // }

        $this->attach($this, [
            'NOTIFY_FOOTER_END',
        ]);
    }

    public function update(&$class, $eventID, $paramsArray)
    {
        $time_start = explode(' ', PAGE_PARSE_START_TIME);
        $time_end = explode(' ', microtime());
        $parse_time = number_format(($time_end[1] + $time_end[0] - ($time_start[1] + $time_start[0])), 3);

        $this->output($parse_time);
    }

    public function output($parse_time)
    {
        global $db;
?>
        <div class="smallText center">Parse Time: <?php echo $parse_time; ?> - Numbename it r of Queries: <?php echo $db->queryCount(); ?> - Query Time: <?php echo round($db->queryTime(), 5); ?></div>
<?php
    }
}

best.
