list of public worksheets reads every published worksheet from disk #71

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
It appears that in order to display the list of public worksheet, every 
worksheet is read from disk.  This is, of course, horrible for scalability, as 
sagenb.org has over 3000 published worksheets.  

I think we should get this list from the worksheet cache, and just load all 
published worksheets into the cache at the very start.

A consequence of this is that it is trivial to do a denial of service on 
sagenb.org by simply requesting the /pub/ listing, and you don't even have to 
do it very rapidly.
