It's A Wonder It Works At All

I've mentioned that I'm a little disappointed in the performance of Minx, given the  power of the hardware and the amount of time I've spent tweaking it to wring out every drop of performance (given that it's written in Python).

Well.

I was just looking at some numbers.  There are currently 342 top-level tags in Minx, that is, block tags, here tags, and magic tags, tags that select data from the database.  (This doesn't include all the flow-control tags such is [if], [loop], and [include].)  That's not the complete set, just what is supported (or partly supported) at the moment.

The [posts] tag, which selects and displays posts, and which in its simplest form consists of the single statement [posts:here] (that's what I mean by a "here tag"), produces 245 data tags for each post.

So that's where all my milliseconds are going...
