Magento's image helper is bloated and the performance impact is quite significant. Some of the complexity can also be removed because the gain is not that significant (example: the hash part of the image url). I would like to be able to use a replacement with the following features: - lightweight - support for gd and imagemagick - has nicer image paths Optional: - use a queueing system for the resize job If others are interested we can spec this out further.

Simple Image Helper

Overview

By default when Magento templates load an image from the template it creates an expensive process. This process requires checking of the disk to see if the cached file exists and is still valid. It also requires logic to process and resize a new image if this is the first request of the asset. As this is a view file we want to remove any business logic and ensure that the template has the assetes available without any overhead on the page load.

Installation

To install this module either use modman or install by downloading all files and installing as per default Magento installation guidelines.
