Dare has posted up on his blog about my posts (one, two and three) on RSS Bandit and the performance problems that I was having. Eric Gunnerson obviously reads Dare’s blog and chimed in with these general suggestions – the second approach is very close to what I suggested here.
For now I’ve actually trimmed my feeds down to a manageable level (it needed to be done anyway) which has improved the situation quite a bit but I am sure the list of feeds I subscribe to will climb back up there and it’d be nice if RSS Bandit is ready.
Dare: If you need someone to look at your code with a performance eye every now and then just send me an e-mail () when you have a drop that you want tested. I’ll throw it into the allocation profiler and see what I can see.
