Question Optimize RSS Feed load time

Hi,
I'm running Kunena 1.5.12 with Joomla 1.5.21. There are 59249 post and 2342 discussion in the forum.
All works ok exept the load time of Rss Feed. If try to get the rss feed (settings: by post, one week) I neew to wait more than one minute to get the response. Looking at the mysql process, i see that the cause of the long time is the query used to get the data from the database:

This query takes more than a minute to run.
If I set kunena to generate the feed by thread, the feed loads immediatly.
There is a solution for this problem? I don't know if this problem is fixed in Kunena 1.6, but I can't upgrade now to kunena 1.6 due to javascript conflict with my template.

Thanks for all the work to the kunena team
Bye,
GHz

Hello,

I know that the RSS query in K1.6.x is a bit more optimised, i think it's should possible to put this query into K1.5.x.

Hi xillibit,
if you can give me the code I can do some tests

There are huge performance improvements in K 1.6 and there will be even bigger performance improvements in K 2.0.

As a matter if interest, how long do you think it will take you to resolve the Javascript conflict?

Hi sozzled,
I've updated my website (link in signature) one month ago from joomla 1.0 with fireboard (oooold!!!) to joomla 1.5 with kunena 1.5 after many month of works. I've made custom modification to my forum (additional profile fields, additional user info in posts). The upgrade from fireboard was not complicated, but in kunena 1.6 I think that I need some time to report my custom modification. Kunena 1.6 require mootools 1.2 that conflict with my template menù (ja_kyanite_II).
So, I've planned to do the next major update (joomla, kunena, template, other extension) to joomla 1.6 when it will be released and stable.
I know that in kunna 1.6 contains many optimization but I hope to find a solution for this problem because I don't think to update the forum soon.
I'm also searching a solution for this things:

• Topic subscriptions: users need to enable or disable automatic topic subscription, now it's not possible, only the administrator can enable or disable it for all. I've suggested to introduce this feature in the forum at fireboard time (3 years ago).
• Latest posts module: I've found a module for kunena 1.5 to show forum latest post but it make a query that take many seconds to execute and slow down the website. I'm looking for an optimized module.

Bye,
GHz

There will not be any official solution provided by the project team for K 1.5. The official solution as far as this problem is concerned, is K 1.6.

Regarding your other off-topic questions:

(1) I do not understand your users' inability to enable or disable topic subscription. Check your setting Kunena Configuration » Frontend » User Related » Allow Subscriptions = Yes

(2) Read what the moderators of this site had to say in Kunena latest posts .

Good luck in finding the performance improvements that you're hoping for in K 1.5. I believe that it will be quicker for you, and much less costly, if you upgraded to K 1.6.
