Agreed. A four-fold increase in script processing time seems about average for the tests I've seen comparing 6.7 and 7.0; much beyond that seems like something with the host.

Perhaps drop a note to DH Support to see if perhaps they've consolidated users or made any other changes that might increase load on the machine?


I do have a simple test script with a repeat loop and a list sort that
takes @ 4 times as long to execute with 7.0.0 as it does with earlier
versions, but Phil's script doesn't show anything like the same problem
here as it does on his DreamHost server.

Consistent with my tests - Malte started a benchmarking project, which has been moving along nicely in its new home in the forums.

The engine team is reviewing test scripts posted there, esp. those that can be run with LC Server.

The reason for focusing on Server right now is two-fold:

1. It isolates rendering speed from other processing; they have a couple different areas they're working on rendering speed, so tests that isolate other processing are especially helpful to them right now.

2. It's really easy for them to run diagnostics from the command line.

Here's my contribution to Malte's testing project:
