PHPRunner General questions

Some of my projects contain up to two hundred tables and twenty menu items with ten to thirty fields each. This means rather slow building of fifteen hundred files every time.
So up to PHPRunner 5.1 I was creating the additional projects for the reports and for the charts. It requires the additional menu pages and complicates security issues.
With the version 5.1 we should be able to use the submenus and so it drives me to join all the projects to the one which may have thousands of files to build every time when the format of a field or two changes.
Since the same issues must affect many of you, what tips and tricks are available to trim down these problems?

Version 5.1 brings realy good news! Combining several projects under the submenus saves lots of space: I merged some projects of ~1000 files each and got ~1500 files only! Thanks.

Hi Vitas,

The info available so far on the 5.1 menus doesn't really explain how the space is saved. Could you clarify how that works?

Hi Andy,
There is little to explain... My problem was that the menus in some of my apps were becoming so long that I had to split projects and to join them using the additional html pages or other workarounds. Still these several projects (~1300 files each) were big enough to make me wonder how big will be the one joined under the phpr 5.1. To my big surprise, the final file contains ~1500 files only and their building is faster.
On the other hand, in the betas up to 1148, the menu (with submenus) becomes big enough to crash phprunner sometimes while file building. Phpr team informed me that they will fix this issue in the following beta.

Ah, OK. That makes sense. Thanks for sharing,
