The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[David Verdin <address@concealed>]

Hi,

When displaying the list of list, sympa must evaluate the visibility 
scenario for each list, to know if the person asking to view the list is 
allowed to do so.
The implies to read each lists' config and evaluate their scenario. 
reading the config file is the toughest job. If you have a lot of lists, 
you shoul use the config.bin files; they are cache binary version of 
config files. Reading them don't need parsing or analysis on the Sympa 
part. It greatly improves the performances.

Please read the documentation part regarding config.bin files: 
https://www.sympa.org/manual/conf-parameters/part3#cache_list_config
And the FAQ addressing performance issues in Sympa : 
https://www.sympa.org/faq/performances

Regards,

David
