I currently have approximately 150 child nodes that require sorting. When the nodes are sorted, I end up with a timeout. I believe I have tracked this down to a published event firing on the ContentService, which runs logic I have for creating/updating/deleting relations on these specific content items.

Is there a method to determine whether a sort has occurred, within my published event handler? If I can detect a sort, I can avoid running the logic for publishing and handling the relations.

Any help would be very much appreciated.
