Configuration: eZ Publish 4.0.0, Apache 2.2, PHP 5.2.4, WinXP SP2, MySQL 5.1
evry page opening very long time ( 3-5 sec). I create a trace of eZ. Results are below.

as i see - connect to the MySQL demand alot of time. but it spent only 32% of total time.... How can I tune my enviroment for better results?

=====================
Also some of offtopic: why i must login twice? If i want to create new post and not loggin in, site redirect me to the login page. After I insert a correct login and password site redirect me to the login page again! And only second login i return to the forum...

One reason is that PHP performs badly on Windows compared to Linux, this is something they (PHP and Microsoft) are working on but don't expect miracles.

One other reason is eZ Publish, it uses a lot of filesystem calls, something NTFS (file system on Windows) handles a lot worse then most filesystems on Linux.

Both on Windows and Linux you should look into tweaking PHP, and adding a PHP accellerator (APC or eaccelerator).

Thanks, André.
I'll try eZ Publish on Linux next week and try compare it.

About filesystem (by the way - i know what is NTFS :) ) - is it have sense placed eZ on RAM disk? The volume of it is not large (32 Mb), so, i can try create RAM-disk... What you think about it?

You need a lot more then 32 mb, becuase if you want it to have a effect, you need to have the cache ( but not neciserly the var/*/storage ) on the ram disk. An I recently saw 64Gb used for cache only on a medium install with 9 siteaccesses.. (even though some of the cache size issues on installs with many siteaccesses are looked into).

You mean a RAM cache istead of disk cache in /var/*.. ? Any details on how to do that for eZ?

No, he was talking about Ram Disk, a hard drive built with ram. Kind of like Solid-state disk, but it will loose all information if it looses power..

Edit: he probably meant this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAM_disk , while I thought ha was talking about this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-RAM
