This fixes a major performance issue, where we would fetch
user_profile objects inside a code path that had already bulk-fetched
the necessary user objects.
Like the similar related changes we just made, the fix is to marshall
and pass the data into the avatar library directly.
Due to the refactoring of the avatar URL codepath that added realm IDs
to the URLs, we ended up calling `get_user_profile_by_email` inside
`get_avatar_url`, which in turns was called in a loop over all users
in a realm.
Needless to say, this resulted in a significant performance problem.
We fix this issue by passing in the data needed to compute the avatar
URL, rather than looking it up by email address.
Rather than checking every modal individually in hotkey.js for
handing the escape key, we now use the modals API:
is_active: says whether any modal is open
close_active: closes the active modal
We were mapping the escape key to fake-click a redundant
click handler when the settings pages were open. This fix
lets the actual click handling work via modals.js, and it
lets keyboard handling directly calls modals.close_settings().
This is one of the last major endpoints that were still done in the
pre-REST style.
While we're at it, we change the endpoint to expect a stream ID, not a
stream name.
sort_client_labels sorts first by total, and then to ensure deterministic
outcomes, sorts (reverse) alphabetically by label.
Fixes regression introduced in 0c0e539.
This commit removes all references to feature_flags.local_echo.
It's been a core feature for about four years, so I think we
can safely say the experiment was successful.:)
This fixes a significant performance issue with LaTeX rendering (and
other things that invoked node) where starting up node took a few
hundred milliseconds due to nvm initialization.
Tweaked by tabbott to avoid copying the node binary itself, instead
using a tiny wrapper script.
This is important primarily because it's possible a future version of
node will expect to find libraries/dependencies/etc. installed via NVM
at some path related to the path of the node binary itself, and that's
more guaranteed with this new model.
Fixes#4618.
The function modals.is_active() can see if modals are open
without having to look at the DOM. This should make it snappier
to type in the compose box. Even if the speedup is pretty minor,
not having to worry about jQuery slowness should make it easier
to diagnose future compose box issues.
The new function gets used in other places, too, where performance
isn't so much an issue.
