SitemapXML v.2

[simon1066]

in troubleshooting a speed issue on a development site, i came across the plugin check for updates.

considering this plugin is updated every 1 to 1.5 years, is it really necessary to check for an update on every page load on the admin? or did i butcher my install?

FWIW, I normally disable that check upon install of the SiteMap XML as well (and for the same reason).

I see how to disable version checking for this mod in init_sitemapxml.php but wonder how can I tell that version checking (on every page load) is actually taking place. Is it just by identifying the relevant code or is there another way such as server logs, browser console. It seems that it might be useful to know if other mods are carrying out excessive checking. Hope the answer is not too blindingly obvious.
