[Solved] Menu loads slow - binding to sitemap

[Frank Saraceno]

In the Telerick MVC source code, In Menu.cs, I'm noticing a problem with a Menu that is 
bound to a sitemap, the menu is loading slowing, taking about 5-10 seconds.

This is how I use menu in the view - pretty basic.


<%: Html.Telerik().Menu()      
                      .Name("Menu")       
                      .BindTo("sample")%>




In debugger I've isolated the problem to following line of code to where it hangs.

In the Telerick MVC source code, menu.cs, the WriteHtml function hangs for
about 5-10 seconds before menu appears. The line of code that hangs is
Items.Each(item => item.WriteItem<Menu, MenuItem>(this, menuTag, builder));











In Menu.cs this is the method...










protected override void WriteHtml(HtmlTextWriter writer)
        {
            Guard.IsNotNull(writer, "writer");

            if (Items.Any())
            {
                if (SelectedIndex != -1 && Items.Count < SelectedIndex)
                {
                    throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(TextResource.IndexOutOfRange);
                }

                if (HighlightPath)
                {
                    Items.Each(HighlightSelectedItem);
                }

                INavigationComponentHtmlBuilder<MenuItem> builder = rendererFactory.Create(this);

                IHtmlNode menuTag = builder.Build();

                Items.Each(item => item.WriteItem<Menu, MenuItem>(this, menuTag, builder));

                menuTag.WriteTo(writer);
            }
            
            base.WriteHtml(writer);
        }






Anyone else run into this?

Hi Frank Saraceno,

 This is not a known issue and I cannot reproduce it in our online demo where the menu appears instantly. We will need a sample project which demonstrates the slow loading. You can attach one to this thread.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Yes the menu in example code works fine. Unfortunately, I have a real world application
that is too big (and proprietary) to send to you. I'll have to find solution on my own. I'll re-post once I find the solution.

Thanks again.

How did you end up solving this problem. I am experiencing the same problem with my MVC application that uses Telerik().Menu() ?
