[mapserver-users] Getcapabilities extremely slow in version 6.4.1

[thomas bonfort]

IIRC, this happened when we introduced advanced layer groupings along with
inspire support in 6.2, and has to do with multiple passes through layers
to determine which ones to activate or not. I'd suspect the cost is
proportional to nlayers² which is why it comes up for folks with many
layers in their mapfiles.
