Hi,
When I install and configure the module the memory consuption explodes and my side goes down.
I'm running a druapl instance on a server with 256 MB of main memory, I have round about 500 Pages, and only some tags.
Do you have any experience with that, how much memory is needed? How big can sites get? Is there a linear memory increase? How many user / hour can the modul support before it get down.
Regards Christian

Oh wait. I'm working on this as part of the rewrite. The cache will be my friend.

@indytechcook I would be really interesting in hearing your ideas of how to implement caching for this module. If you've already got some code I'd love to see it so we can share some ideas/code to get it up and running.

A big help will be moving the configuration out of variables. Right now they are stored very ineffectively. A variable for each settings. I'm moving to an OO based methodology. There will be one record in one table that holds all of the configuration. The settings will be cached in a effective manner.

I also plan on caching a tid => tids/mlids and nid => tids/mlids relationship to know what records need to be updated without heavy querying of the db.

I don't have any code to share yet but I hope to within a month.

I had a fruther try and i think that the problem is the breadcrum thing.

Any news about this? I have two vocabs with circa 2500 terms and if menu Rebuild is done, VPS with 2 GB of RAM dies with run out of memory :(

Any udpates to this?

I'm running into the same problem -- every time taxonomy menu loads it crushes my server. The main vocab on my site has less than 600 terms...

Same here in D7, each page load even with minimal terms with the Tax menu enabled, averages around 3k-4k milliseconds. Disable the module and its down to 200ms avg.

indytechcook is hinting on 'loading the taxonomy tree' as a performance problem.

My problem (with D7) is 'loading the terms' happens for every term in the menu. This isn't a memory problem (yet), but it is hurting the page response time, since the menu is being rebuilt on EVERY page request, and every 'term load' generates a db-request and extra calculations.
So, depending on the root cause, the following issue is either related or a duplicate:
#1973920: Memory/Performance problems, when building a menu with a large taxonomy_menu
