If you keep publishing new releases that quick, I run out of superlatives. Again, tnx to @bep and the whole team of contributors! You rock!

The main reason the releases have been a string of pearls lately is that I want to get the image and resource API right … it is less painful to change stuff now that it is not in widespread use.

For the record, without the smartcrop, the blog took the same time to build. Altough, for some reason, the first trial I did took about 10 minutes.

We cache the image processing result into /resources/_gen and reuse it on rebuild. Which is why I recommend to commit that folder to Git etc.

I was careful with the wording “Processed images” – we handle 2933 “Processed images”, but it is not processed every time.

The image processing part is expensive (with and without the smart crop), and doing that 3000 times on every build would not have worked.

@bep Is there a roadmap for future work on the resource pipeline? Absolutely loving the changes so far and am curious to see what’s on the way.

Not a road map, per se, but I think that once I get done with https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/issues/4381 then it should be clearer.

That kind of completes the overall Resource design – and it introduces some other resource types that needs similar handling the images (they needs to be processed in an effective manner).

What that processing means I’m not sure about. But I guess I will introduce some kind of general sha1 fingerprinting, which seems to be a common requirement.

$cssLink := .Fingerprint.RelPermalink

This “lazy way” of doing this is a very easy mental model for me. Both as a user, but also on the implementation side. I’m not just talking about “getting it to work”, it also has to play ball with partial rebuilds etc. . And be “Hugo fast”.

The closest thing we have to a roadmap is Github Milestones. The delivery dates on the milestones are usually met, but an issue being in a milestone doesn’t guarantee that it will be delivered with that milestone.
