Just wondering if you can have too many triggers. How many do people have on their sites and do you notice any performance issues with lots of them.
I have a number of triggers in mind, but we already have performance issues and I don't want to make things worse by adding a lot of triggers.
We follow the suggestions in Matrix such as using exact values of type, status and tree locations first etc,
Thanks
Lots of triggers means lots of extra processing for Matrix to do. So yes, having a lot could decrease performance of the system. But it does depend on how you have configured them.
Apart from the good suggestions you have listed, also make sure you are not creating too any triggers listening on common events. For example, if you have a lot of triggers listening for the Asset Accessed event, lots of processing will occur every time as asset is view on the frontend, which is not good.
