    Description

    I have created apc cache for Zend_Navigation instance. I have got massive performance improvement on container init.

    But still there is a problem on rendering helper.

    findActive function of Zend_View_Helper_Navigation_HelperAbstract class is consuming too much time on render.

    I think findActive function may use to indexing or caching adapter for following calls.

    Hi Tuğrul, at this point a caching adapter for Zend_Navigation (ZF1) is not an option.

    If you can you give a proposal for implementation, then we can reopen this issue.

    Maybe can pick active node and keep aside on navigation build.

    I abandoned ZF1 and look at ZF2. I don't like ZF2 because there is a unnecessary confusion on ZF2.

    I'm using Phalcon framework currently and building my own navigation component based on mongodb. I think dbms is very easy and fast way find active node with query and climb up throught parents using dbref.

    {quote}Maybe can pick active node and keep aside on navigation build.{quote} Give me an example how would you do it. {quote}I don't like ZF2 because there is a unnecessary confusion on ZF2.{quote} Confusion? It is new and makes many things diffent, but ZF2 is much more flexible and better structured. The module structur in ZF2 is very nice! Some practice and maybe a complete project and you will no longer have any big problems. {quote} I think dbms is very easy and fast way find active node with query and climb up throught parents using dbref.{quote} A db-adapter is not a option for Zend_Navigation in ZF1.

    If you can offer a good solution, then I will write a patch and unit tests. But we can't rewrite the whole component.
