    Admin side performance: what's "normal" and what's the bottleneck?

    We have many umbraco sites running on our servers, and we've noticed that the pages perform great from the end user perspective (sub-second response time) but when logged into the admin side and clicking on content pages for edit, the response time is much slower. 

    On a typical page, I would browse to the node in the content tree and click on it, and it could take up to 5 seconds before the page loads on the right and is populated in the main content area/editor.

    Is 5 seconds 'typical' for you my fellow umbraco users? Or is that slow?

    Also, there are some pages that CONSISTENTLY take closer to 20 seconds to load into the editor. Some of these don't look to have much more in the way of content/links/images, and some of these long running pages have macros on the page (.net user controls, though 'render in editor' is turned off). 

    Are there certain things that could be on a page, such as macros, that are known to make loading into the editor take considerably longer?

    Also, does anyone know what the typical breakdown is in time spent loading a page for edit?  I ran sql profiler on our database while i loaded a page, and after filtering down through everything, it seemed the grand sum of the multitude of queries was under a second.  That means 80% of the load time is somewhere else.  Is it communication between web server and sql server?  Is it client side load of content into TinyMCE? Any ideas where to look to shave time is appreciated.

    My end goal is to have the site editor experience go much faster than we are seeing, but if anyone can offer some feedback as to whether 2-3 second editor load is reasonable or if what I'm seeing is to be expected, it could help temper expectations or guide me towards a fix.

    Hi e,

    To me it sounds like there's some kind og custom datatype that causes the overhead. Normally it shouldn't take more than a split-second to load a node in Umbraco content area. Do you have any custom datatypes (or packages) which could possible load a good chunk of data from either a database, webservice or some such?

    No custom data types, just the basics: text strings, text boxes, and rich text fields.  Besides the basics (header and body text, title, meta fields, analytics fields) our document type (in this example) does have 2 additional rich text for right/left columns, for a total of 3 tinymce editors in play at a time...

    What else could affect load time inside of the content area?
