[mapserver-users] Getcapabilities extremely slow in version 6.4.1

[Jeff McKenna]

I too was wondering if this occurs with a simple mapfile of layers with 
groups, even with just inline features (no actual data).

(I haven't hit this grouped-issue yet though in my travels, but I have 
hit the slow getcapabilities solved by adding extents to all layers)

Cached GetCapabilities could be set to be refreshed for example once per week/day/hour if there is a need to react on changes in the data, and each time after the mapfile has been edited and saved with a new timestamp.
