Propose your change to taxonomy module in core

Pushing this into core means Drupal 7, which I have no experience with, and sadly don't have the time to start. I'd love to, although I'm really not sure how many people this would benefit, certainly Googling, and searching the Drupal site itself there is a lot of comment on the use of "Large taxonomies", but what percentage of the total users this is, is hard to say.

Thanks for your comments anyway Robert, I'll leave this issue open as a reminder, of what I should be doing with this module.

Great contrib! If possible, a patch in the queue for review would be a good start.

+1 to Robert

Great contrib!

Warm regards from sunny México!

Have you guys seen this one?

It is meant to address the same issue of super large taxos with the nested tree algorithm.

Sorry giorgio79, you've not read the module's project page properly. It definitely isn't designed to improve Drupal's handling of large taxonomies.

Thanks but I think I have. :) Taxonomy Lineage as I understand it is meant to handle super large hierarchical taxonomies, and the emphasis there is on hierarchy...Currently Drupal Taxonomy module stores only the parent child relationships and it has to rejoin itself to get the full hierarchical taxonomy line for a multi level hierarchy (like geo hierarchy such as continent->country->city->locality...). Taxonomy Lineage solves this issue. As I understand yours is good for free tagging single level taxos as well...

Back to the topic of this issue:

The module requires a small patch to "taxonomy.module" which is fully backwards compatible, meaning that it will work with, or without leftandright installed. Installation of the module requires the taxonomy.module file to be replaced with the one provided.

Is there a link to the D7 issue queue where you are proposing this change?
