I was loading my models [$this->load->model('Subareamodel')] in my controller constructor. Instead of doing that I loaded the models in the controller methods that needed them. This made the whole thing run at its previously quick pace, even with autoload. I can live with that, I suppose. Yup, it did run faster when using require_once.

Well, can you try loading that parent model using <em>require_once()</em> and see what difference that would make?

It will probably be negligible once it goes into production. However, I am running this on a very beleaguered development machine. It will probably be negligible once it goes into production.

The differences will be more or less noticeable depending on the complexity of the page, I suppose.

I use this setup on several machines and they all seem to run it rather well. No, I haven’t encountered any slowdowns. I use this setup on several machines and they all seem to run it rather well.

Did you encounter significant slowdown in performance after using __autoload()? My app feels slower, but I didn't bother to check loading times using the profiler before enabling autoload, so I'm not sure. Thanks.

It's me again. Where would be a good place to define PATH_TO_LIBRARIES? Thanks! -brian Hi Alex. It’s me again. Where would be a good place to define PATH_TO_LIBRARIES? Thanks!

It does, in fact, provide better and more flexible ways for autoloading. Also, there is a possibility to place all of the routines into methods within a class. Thanks for the pointer.
