Try to do less in theme_get_settings() on every request

Created on 13 July 2015, almost 10 years ago

Updated 26 May 2025, 8 days ago

Problem/Motivation

Anonymous user, frontpage, without page_cache (entire request time 94ms).

In there we spend 1ms in theme_get_setting(), which does quite a lot:

Proposed resolution

Try to cache the theme settings not in the request but between requests. One really good place could be the cache entry for the active theme object.
In case we would store it there, we would avoid the call to $themes = \Drupal::service('theme_handler')->listInfo(); in there.

Thank you for creating this issue to improve Drupal.

We are working to decide if this task is still relevant to a currently supported version of Drupal. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or is no longer relevant. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

Thanks!
