Too many marshall dump/load calls?

Hi all,

I have a model that is populated from XML using REXML. As many have written, REXML seems to add singleton methods incompatible with normal Marshalling as used with file/db session stores. So, I wrote my own _dump and _load methods. In the course of doing so, I noticed that the dump/load is called _way_ more often than I thought. One request to a basic 'show' method results in about 18 dump/loads.

Any idea what could cause this? I have made heavy use of partials, content_for, etc. to clean up my views. Could that be the culprit?

Thanks,

Brian

The obvious thing would be to have your dump method log the callstack (eg with caller) whenever it is called. Run your action and see who is causing dump to be called.
