Along these lines, our prices and inventory are constantly changing. How much "slow down" can be expected from "hole punching" those aspects of the site?

Thank you!

Hey.

Thanks for the questions. I added them to our FAQ.

For responsive templates, yes a Responsive template will still operate normally. Think of it this way, X-cart gives you an HTML page in the end after it does all it▓s processing and calculations. What this module does is store that HTML page for quick retrieval. No processing involved (or minimal if you holepunch). So the HTML result is the same, it▓s just a snapshot and all the processing is done when you run the cache to generate these snap shot pages.


For the holepunching, it takes about 150 milliseconds to initialize X-cart. So you would add that much time plus what ever query you need. If it▓s something like asking for the current inventory amount for a product, that time is pretty negligible as it▓s a simple query to the database. So to holepunch the inventory would only add around 150 milliseconds.

Let me know though if this isn't helpful!

Thanks,

Carrie
