Feature request from paales, posted on GitHub Oct 14, 2016
Preconditions
- 2.1.2
Steps to reproduce
- Create a category/search page with a lot of configurable products with (image?) swatches
- Make sure the normal cache is loaded (loading another page)
- Load the category page.
Expected result
- Page should load timely
Actual result
- It seems underlying product's images are loaded as well. These images aren't used when rendering a category page.
They are loaded here:
https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/fb6faf5975fd7580eb407f089f8fbcacd5ee42f5/app/code/Magento/C...
I'm seeing a huge performance boost when I'm disable that line, and it doesn't seem to degrade in functionality (it doesn't use those images).
