that tels you how fast the page loaded in your browser. It also tells you what percentage of that time was caused by the files (php) and what pecentage of the time was caused by the database (sql). It also tells you how many database queries (information requests) were made in order to load the page.
It is not important info unless your pages are loading slowly. If the page generation time is below 1 second, but your still loading slowly, the problem may be your computer. If the page generation get high .. over a few seconds, you can see if the problem is in your files (php) or your database (sql). It is not quite that black and white, but it give you some information to use to look for the problem
you may remove it by opening forum root/includes/page_tail.php
find and delete this code
- Code: Select all
/* Un-comment the line below to restrict Admins only to view page generation info */ //if( ($userdata['session_logged_in']) and ($userdata['user_level'] == ADMIN) )//{ $gzip_text = ($board_config['gzip_compress']) ? 'GZIP enabled' ] + $mtime[0]; $endtime = $mtime; $gentime = round(($endtime - $starttime), 4); $sql_time = round($db->sql_time, 4); $sql_part = round($sql_time / $gentime * 100); $php_part = 100 - $sql_part; //}*/if( defined('DEBUG') ){ $debug_out = '<div>[Page generation time: '. $gentime .'s (PHP: '. $php_part .'% | SQL: '. $sql_part .'%) | SQL queries: '. $excuted_queries .' | '. $gzip_text .' | '. $debug_text .']</div>';}else{ $debug_out = '<br>';}
but it is kinda like driving a car with no speedometer
