But aren't you looking for some sort of application profiler?
The point is that you need information to build a profile...
sort of benchmarker? One could argue that slowly rendered pages are sign that the application is badly designed too,
Indeed!
still you wouldn't want to see in the log file:
INFO: the request took more than 2 seconds to be fullfilled (this has occured 10 times already)
Well, yes, you do, but maybe not so verbosely ;-) We have Apache log the time to serve in microseconds for every single request, for later analysis. If you like, I'm happy to add a binary column to Z2.log ;-)
Similarly if the number of cache objects is too low, the application will run slowly,
Well, I don't know if you or I understand zodb's caching to know what to log...
do you want to see:
INFO: 1000 objects loaded into the cache in the last 5 minutes
...but yeah, if you could quantify that having 1000 objects loaded made a significant difference to the perfomance of the request where that was logged, then I'd be all for adding it...
So why not instead create a product that logs occasional conflict errors?
Because it's a lot more work than leaving it like it is but with improved inforamtion, which, from the vote, is going to keep the most people happy anyway ;-)
there is already in the ZMI in the database management screen some information about cached objects- Why not add the information that you are looking for there instead?
That's another possibility, are you volunteering to code it though? ;-) Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
