So your original test of 1083253 milliseconds
is about 18 minutes
to generate 600,000 Lorem ipsum posts, is that right?
I am amazed at how fast hugo builds and renders the static sites!
One question on your data though.
All the benchmarks I have seen on Hugo is “Lorem Ipsum” dummy text stuff generated solely for testing purposes. How realistic are these posts, considering they are all text only, with 0 image embeds, or video embeds.
Also the template used to generate do not have a whole lot of go template logic.
So I want to know how/if the built performance will change on “real” data that
- Has realistic news / media content like images, gifs, video embeds etc and
- Uses a template that has
if... else
logic, loops etc
I did notice in my own builds with a 400-ish posts that I migrated from wordpress to markdown, that the build performance changes significantly from template to template.
