2024.1 Performance improvements

We are regularly profiling and optimizing Orbeon Forms. With Orbeon Forms 2024.1, in particular, we:

  • improved page loading times by removing overhead in our internal page router (#6547)
  • added database indexes to speed up form publishing and other operations (#5689)
  • added paging support for the form metadata API, which improves the performance of the Forms and Admin pages (#5493)

With Orbeon Forms 2024.1.1, we continued with the following:

  • improved performance of data reindexing (#6731/#6773)
  • improved compilation times for formulas that refer to many form controls (#5948)

And now, for the upcoming 2024.1.2 release, we have already made the following improvements:

  • improved the response of form updates when the user interacts with large forms by around 25% (#6981/#6995/#6998/#6999)
  • made the Form Builder “Control Settings” dialog faster (#6972)

We hope that you will like these Orbeon Forms enhancements!
