Overhead cost of advanced permissions
Permalink
I was wondering if anyone has any useful insights on the additional overheads costs (if any) that running a site with advanced permissions vs. basic permissions.

Correct, as in any performance hit (if at all).
I guess it would depend on how much you implemented them. Say you have a user area, that has all kinds of roles, flags, groups, etc.. it may then, but also like you know, if it's not going to be massively hit it's probably negligible.
But now you've got me curious, I've got to vanilla C5's installed, I'll turn Advanced Permissions on one, and do some load testing.

Much appreciated :D
So far, it looks like I'd only be utilizing default permissions for page types/templates, but I'm curious if just having them enabled will result in a hit (regardless of implementation or not).

Hmmm.. will check for that too. Turning them on, may create new tables/columns in the db; ... dig into the code a bit and see.

I ran the load tests, and their was a difference in speed, but it didn't become a "problem" until the load got ridiculous. And this was just on my local quad-core box, on a properly configured web server, etc.. it would be better.
Like 15j said, I wouldn't turn it on until you think you absolutely need it.

dot sure about directly, but indirectly it can cause some code issues, either causing code to execute slow, or to fix it requiring lots of code. just something to think about.
Thanks for the insight, guys :)
