Aah, one more came to me after sending this.
We can track execution time when doing autoimport. Something like:
$time_taken = 0;
$avg = average time needed to import one translation file. computed by us? is it reliable?
foreach($files as $file) {
$start = microtime();
import_file($file);
$stop = microtime();
$time_taken += $stop-$start;
if ($time_taken > ($avg_computed - $treshold)) {
// print a warning "There is not enough time to import all
// translation files. You should <a href="/import-manually-now">run import manually again</a>"
}
}
This assumes that:
1) We can track modules already imported and not yet imported
2) We are able to determine average time needed to import translation
file. One can compare $time_taken to max_execution_time but this is
really non-deterministic, one more file can be over limit and you can do
nothing...Should be simplier if everybody is using PHP5 with exceptions.
