+Since v3.1.0, a new control called TOutputCache has been introduced. This control allows users to selectively cache parts of a page's output. When used appropriately, this technique can significant improve pages' performance because the underlying controls are not created at all if the cached versions are hit. +

Using pradolite.php

Including many PHP script files may impact application performance significantly. PRADO classes are stored in different files and when processing a page request, it may require including tens of class files.To alleviate this problem, in each PRADO release, a file named pradolite.php is also included. The file is a merge of all core PRADO class files with comments being stripped off and message logging removed. diff --git a/demos/quickstart/protected/pages/Configurations/AppConfig.page b/demos/quickstart/protected/pages/Configurations/AppConfig.page index b0a3c7c3..45e71a1d 100644 --- a/demos/quickstart/protected/pages/Configurations/AppConfig.page +++ b/demos/quickstart/protected/pages/Configurations/AppConfig.page @@ -5,7 +5,8 @@ Application configurations are used to specify the global behavior of an application.
