Scripts Keep Instancing

Legacy Contributor

Hello, 

One problem that I've just ran across and never noticed is that, scripts continually instance themselves within a users session source. This came up from some users experiencing slowdowns that were resolved from caches being cleared. I haven't found anything yet that addresses this, just hoping for some direction or help.

Thank you for taking the time. 

Edit: Did just want to state that I have script detaching as described in the developers guide, but the file still remains.

One technique is to add an entry to the cache the first time the script is invoked after opening the panel. The the next time the panel is invoked, check the cache and return (don't continue invoking the script again) if the entry exists. Just make sure you remove the cache entry when you exit the panel.

Have a look at H5SampleRequestTracer in the H5 script examples as it does what you need.

Cheers,

Iain
