X-Cart forums - Autoresponder Speed-Up/Tweak

Wanted to pass along a bit of information that will hopefully prove useful.

We have this module installed and are happy with it thus far. However, after installing we noticed the customer side of our website slowed down tremendously with the majority of the time coming from PHP processing.

The module calls a file from the auth.php file (If you have the module you can see what it is from the installation instructions). Placing the file there slows down the load time of the customer side (for us it was a full second). I emailed MagneticOne about the issue and we were able to set up a simple cron job to call the file instead of including it in the auth.php file.

Just wanted to give an FYI in case anyone else is running into the same issue.

Simple fix but folks need to be aware especially since search engines are looking at page load times now.
