Re: [support] views' block or custom block ?

I would go with views since you're already using it. The other thing is that you can use views caching to keep the server load even lower on that block.

Hi all, I have a big site on a not so good server machine.

Now I need to create (and display) a block with the last entry of a particular node type (call it "foo").

I can do this in 2 ways:

• views (with template files)
• custom module with costum block section

In a performance context which is the best solution ? I use views in the site so this will not be the only view, and I use other custom modules so the block section will be part of one of them.

Tnx.
