Thanks for the update and fixes...
My initial reaction: S-L-O-W Everything feels slower. Significantly. I upgraded from 4.0.18 I do NOT have fancy categories. Advanced Stats are disabled. My site in .18 is relatively fast -- but it tends to lose its punch in .19 is it just me? Thanks, Jeremy

New installation of v4.0.19 felt pretty fast (with whatever default settings), I couldn't notice anything in particular. By slow, what did you mean?
Still going through the process of updating files that couldn't be updated. EDIT: How are you quantifying the difference in speed? The new installation with one skin loaded up pretty much instantly for me. Maybe clear templates_c? EDIT: woohoo, got one of my wishes granted by X-Cart, they upgraded USPS to V2

Not to double post or anything but this deserves it's own post.
I was wondering about the order in which I should apply the patch. Currently I use one of the X-Cart's skin and now the upgrade kit, the new, and old skin installation define products.tpl. I took me like the past half-hour or so to figure that out because ... it's been a long day. So now that I'm not caught in that loop, I was wondering what I should do? What I've done so far was just extrac that upgrade kit and applied it. I was in the process of manually upgrading the files until that particular problem popped up and stumped me. So should I just ignore it and apply the new skin or what should I do?

For a few months now I have thought that the 4.0.x branch was no longer going to see further point upgrades. Surprise surprise!!
Thanks X-Cart team!! Lots of things in this one. |

Wow, Ralph -- that is some find there! I just happen to be moving to a new server, and I am benchmarking all kinds of things -- true apples for apples testing... and I am testing virgin installs now -- I have put my store on the shelf until I sort some core stuff out... Commenting out the "upgraded" 4.0.19 code in /modules/Product_Options/customer_options.php makes a HUGE difference in page load times for pages with options or variants. HUGE. Dramatic difference. Wow. This is how the code looks in 4.0.18: Code:
This is what it looks like in 4.0.19: Code:
So, to the PHP experts: what exactly is this function doing? Code:
Is it looking for a situation where there is no option selected, and then setting a default option? I went through the changelog for .19 and there are a few references to "product options" -- but I think this code is the long way around to solve a very special problem... please correct me if I'm wrong... Quote:
I wonder how many sub-routines there are that are the long way around, simply to solve a rare problem, but for 99% of the users, there is no need to do this... and B-L-O-A-T starts creeping in... and the codebase needs a rewrite -- oh, they did this in 4.1 Man, how I wish 4.1 was ready for prime time. I am using too many cool mods though... so 4.0.x is going to be it for the time being... I have commented out this code from .19 -- if someone can think of a reason why I might want to keep it live, PLEASE, PLEASE speak up. Thanks Ralph!!!! Jeremy
