vbMicroStats: page load time, queries, GZIP and PHP version

[high]Looking for VB3 version? Is here.[/high]

This hack will add at the bottom of each vBulletin(powered) page the following stats:
- load time of specified page in microseconds (with custom no. of digits to show)
- number of queries executed
- server GZIP library compression status
- vBulletin DEBUG mode
- PHP version
- PHP percent page usage
- MySQL percent page usage
- Server Load
[high]This is not only estethic, it will also help you troubleshoot any wierd queries that you have in your scripts.
The hack is template based so you can edit it the way you want in few seconds.[/high]
NOTE: From users experiences, this hack will work only with PHP 4.0.6 or higher. Let me know if it works with a lower PHP version.

THE FIX FOR VB2.3.0 IS HERE.

HACK UPDATES
Version 2.1
------------------------------------
Changes:
- added Server Load

NOTE: I spoked with Kevin 'tubedogg' from vBulletin Support team and he explained to me that not all the servers are configured to support the [high]@exec("uptime")[/high].
Contact your host for more details and ask them about this issue.
For a full explanation of your 3 server load values, read more here.

*If you want to have the stats viewable only by admins, read this post.

------------------------------------
Changes:
- added vBulletin DEBUG Mode
- removed the Details link
- cleaned a little the code to match VB2.2.6
- better explanations into the install file.

Version 1.7
------------------------------------
[high]VB2.2.5:[/high]
Minor change in admin/db_mysql.php. Read more here on how to update your hack.
Minor change in forum/global.php. Read more here on how to update your hack.

so what would be considered 'bad' ?

[TECK]

over 30 is getting heavy... at 40-45, your server is on the red line and if you have a really busy board it can crash it.

[Bro_Joey_Gowdy]

and theres nothing one can do to make the server quicker ?

(forgive me - im a newbie with databases)

[TECK]

no. think of this:
for every user, there are 22queries performed at that instance.
if you have 1000users on your board, that's 22,000queries performed on the same instance...

the best way is to keep as low as possible your queries.
is funny, since i released this hack, alot of people are concerned about the no. of queries...
with good reason. is healty for your server.

[Bro_Joey_Gowdy]

Awesome !!

Thanks !!

Referring to this post, is it possible to only make SOME of the stats only visible to admins, while the rest is visible by everyone else? [Just like in your screenshot.]

[mashby]

Well, I've enjoyed this hack so much, I've just installed it on a new forum I'm working on (2.2.6) and it installed like a piece of cake - as usual. Thanks nakkid!

I get an error when I apply this hack. It is the following:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: query_first() in /home/public_html/forum/global.php on line 151

Line 151 contains the following:

$optionstemp=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT template FROM template WHERE title='options'");

What's the problem here?
