Hi,

Please note that this plugin will kill your board if you have a lot of visitors. If you want a good performing hitcounter take a look at: http://plugins.b2evolution.net/index.php/2005/08/13/hitcounter

This hack is much better in performing, because it does the work only when the is made, instead with every request.

I’m not sure what you mean by better performing? It may be that the hitcounter method uses less server resources, but it certainly doesn’t accurately track how many times a page is accessed. Visitors who find your page from a search engine will not be recorded because they don’t click the permalink icon. I guess it all depends on what you want eh?

For the record, this hack is working for me in Dawn v. 0.9.1

Better perfomance in CPU usage and memory consumption. If you look at the implementation, it uses the actual log-table which can become very large on big boards. Then it gets all the records and put them in a counting array! I have more than 8000 articles in my board, so this process slows down quite rapidly.
