Issue: Weewx/Cheetah is calling the same Generator for each and every Templates

[Oz Greg]

All,

I have found an interesting issue in Cheetah (weewx) template file generation engine function..  For every template being executed the same report generator(s) is being called thus repeating the same set of queries over and over again which in my case is adding a large overhead to the WD skin generation and I am at a loss on how to prevent this issue..  (Logs are below)..

Is this expected behaviour or am I missing some trick to stop this..

Thanks
