Sitecore Fetch Squad

Automated crawler fetching websites and blogs from Sitecore content

Wow @ Sitecore 6 Item Creation Speed

Crawled: On February - 18 - 2009 Source
I remember this was being brought up right around the time of release of Sitecore 6, that item creation speed had been increased since Sitecore 5.

To be honest, I haven’t really noticed. Until today that is.

For a client, I am currently in the process of converting/migrating an entire website based on the Polopoly CMS system to Sitecore 6. Essentially a process of getting all the source content, parsing and understanding it, mapping it to relevant Sitecore templates (around 20) in all and writing this entire new structure into Sitecore.

Take a look at the numbers I am getting.
