I think this was mentioned before so I was hoping to find it in 5.1.10 but no - no there
If it wasn't mentioned I am doing it now:

Modules - I can select multiple to install or enable but if I want to delete 5 modules I have to do it one by one. So lets say I want to delete 5 modules, cache is regenerated with each deletion and it takes in average 2:30 minutes - so it can take up to 15 min to delete these 5 modules and store is inaccessible during this time.
Not possible to delete in bulk?

Wow I was wrong about the regeneration time. I just timed the rebuilt process when deleting a module - 5:05 minutes. 4:20 with regular "rebuilt cache". I thought the rebuilt time was supposed to improve with newer versions.... but I don't see it, if anything I feel like it takes longer now

Hi Steve!

Sorry that bulk deletion was not added. The main reason for 5.1.10 release is to fix major open bugs, prepare 5.1 branch to 5.2 upgrade and release features that have been half-way ready. This is the reason why we did not add bulk deletion of modules.

However, I do agree that this is a major improvement and we will schedule it for as soon as possible.

As for re-deployment time, I just tested 5.1.10 and 5.1.9 versions on my local machine: 5.1.10's re-deployment time is 2:13, 5.1.9 -- 2:43. So I could not recreate the problem locally.

Could you please try to re-deploy 5.1.9 and 5.1.10 stores on an external server and let me know if you see the same result there? If the problem is reproduced, I would be happy to look into it in the given environment.

Like I said I don't know for sure if the "delete module(s)" was mentioned before so this was more of a "we need it to work like this" statement. Just making sure it is known important limitation.

As for the rebuilt times - yes it is local internal server but still a server not just desktop machine; I can use it as production live server if I want to. So I don't really expect time to cut in half and more if I use an actual server hosted with TSS for example. Just saying...

As for re-deployment times, Steve, if you can replicate the problem with slow re-deployment in some environment, where I can have access to it, please let me know. I would appreciate if you allow me to check the problem there and commit some fix to the core.

Tony.
