Slow builds with Hextra theme

Using Themes
1

My site has quite a lot pages. Buillding it takes a while and use up all CPU. Is there anyway to to speed up the build process cause I’m using CF pages and it takes much more time to build (5 minutes)

hugo v0.118.2+extended linux/amd64 BuildDate=unknown

For any partial with a cache potential of 100 use {{ partialCached … in place of {{ partial ….

To be able to help you more than that we need to see the code so post a link to your repo.

I’m using this theme: GitHub - imfing/hextra: 🔯 Modern, batteries-included Hugo theme for creating beautiful doc, blog and static websites
