Have you seen vB Optimise

**Brandon Sheley** · 12-18-2008, 04:18 PM

Just ran across this thread, what are your thoughts?
vB Optimise 1.0.0 - vBulletin.org Forum

**ArnyVee** · 12-18-2008, 06:01 PM

Very interesting.

I haven't used it, but I'll wait until we know for sure that things load quicker and it's better on the resources.

Just had a play with it, didn't see any difference in page generation times. Currently using XCache on server. It did cut down 2 queries on forumhome though.

Think I'll disable it for now until more info is available.

What can i say... it sounds awesome, i WILL check it out.

**Nick R** · 12-19-2008, 04:53 AM

I've tagged it and will go back to it later

**fattony69** · 06-30-2009, 09:02 PM

Has anyone used this? I am afraid to add more stuff on my forum, it might explode LOL.

vBo is basically meant for optimising those stuff. Though it has some bugs, I'd recommend to use it if you're using vbadvanced, otherwise not as you'll need to disable Caching of Phrases (for a phrase bug) and Caching of Styles (for a permission bug)

I use vBAdvanced but bugs and me don't get along. I usually make it worst than it should be .

**KevinL** · 07-01-2009, 05:32 AM

I haven't had an issue with it except for the Phrases, but I just shut that off. I love it.

**Cerberus** · 07-01-2009, 12:57 PM

I installed this on 3 sites and have noticed improved speeds on them. This has worked fine on them for awhile now. And I agree shut off the phrases. Other than that works fine.

**fattony69** · 07-01-2009, 04:58 PM

I am sort of afraid to do this. Does this have negative effects on other mods?

**Mike54** · 07-02-2009, 04:41 AM

It seems to clash with noppid's vBPicGallery and his stop bot registration mod.

The only quirk I don't care for with vBOptimize is the hassle of clearing cache when I make a template change. I have to turn vBOptimize off, clear its cache, then dump eAccelerator's cache, restart Apache and then enable vBOptimize again. PITA, in my not-so-humble opinion.

**KevinL** · 07-02-2009, 05:33 AM

lol you shouldn't have to do all that.

**Mike54** · 07-02-2009, 07:50 AM

That was my thought, as well. But if I make a template change without it, it will not show the change.

**KevinL** · 07-02-2009, 08:18 AM

If you flush the vBOptimize cache first then make the change, does it work then? This is how I have to do it.

**Mike54** · 07-04-2009, 06:58 AM

No, that doesn't work either.

I just installed the script on a new site this morning. Same issue as before. Shut vBOptimize down, clear cache, dump eAccelerator, restart Apache and restart vBOptimize. It's the only method that works. Believe me, I've tried every possible combination under the sun.

**Caddyman** · 07-08-2009, 03:57 AM

dang, i would try it but that sounds like a lot of work Mike and I tinker with the templates constantly....lol

**Brandon Sheley** · 07-11-2009, 11:05 AM

I've never had any of these template issues and I've been running it just about as long as this thread has been live

**xOBKx** · 07-11-2009, 12:11 PM

I trialled it on my forums for a while, but decided to remove it.

No particular reason, I just didn't notice any particular benefit.

**thincom2000** · 07-11-2009, 11:02 PM

I had it installed for a few days but it actually made my forum slower (we're using XCache, and even though there's an option for it, I don't think vBo actually uses it correctly). Since we began working on the new style for our site, the template cache nuisance became the last straw and we removed it.
