If render time can only access in a controller, Try setting up a message
in
controller then. Moreover, you can use flash variable to do the job
since
you want the message to appear every page :),

I don’t know if it is accessible in the controller. I don’t know where
to look for them…

Oh well. Once I get to them, displaying them will be the last of th
problems :slight_smile:

Arr … I thought you know how to access it in controller, my bad. I was
going to ask you how to do that too :stuck_out_tongue:

By definition, if you can see the page, you got a 200 response so that’s
very possibly not what you want. If render time is what you’re after, an
approximate way to capture that is:

RAILS_ROOT/app/views/layouts/application.rb

<%= @content_for_layout %>
<%= sprintf(’%f’, (Time.now.usec - @start_time.usec).to_f / 1000000) %>

RAILS_ROOT/app/views/layouts/controller_to_time.rb

def initialize
	@start_time = Time.now;
	super
end

Naturally, a better way to do this would be to actually change
ApplicationController on the fly so this initialize code happens all the
time.

Regarding DB, that’s kind of up to you, but a similar technique in
ActiveRecord would work.

By the way, Windows does not render the time to anywhere near the amount
of
precision *nix does.

Hope this helps.
