Fast Token Browser extends the Token module with a faster and more usable interface for browsing and inserting Tokens. It resolves excessive server-side memory usage and client-side unresponsiveness when using the token browser on sites with many tokens. Due to the magnitude of memory savings, this allows the token browser to work with a very low PHP memory limit, even without needing to constrain the maximum token depth.

These improvements are effected by asynchronously loading the token tree. Instead of building and rendering a table containing every token (up to a maximum depth), this module will at most build a single level for a single token at a time, and only when requested. This vastly improves both server- and client-side performance.

You do not need Token Tweaks if you install this module, though having both installed will not cause any conflicts.

Usage

This module is a drop-in replacement to the default browser provided by Token. However, the mechanics of inserting a token work a little differnetly. Instead of clicking in a text field then clicking a token to insert, first click the token, then click in a text field where it will be inserted. This is designed to provide for better keyboard accessibility in a future release.
