Description
The goal of this project is to speed load times for WebWorks Help help sets.
Benchmark Info
Benchmarks gathered in 2006 demonstrate that performance is limited by the number of file requests made to load WWHelp 5.0. The size of the files themselves seems to have little impact on start-up performance.
Optimizer in Python
An early attempt at optimizing WWHelp 5.0 with a Python script was made in 2006. The results were useful for testing purposes, but were not ready for production deployment.
The script was built using Python 2.3, though Python 2.3-2.5 should work as well.
