Mega Menus

Our menu_array.js file is quite large (41KB) with over 450 clickable items. This is because we are using web logic for our reference system. While I personally think this is excessive (designed by our communications team), I am experiencing a speed issue when the menus are loading.

Is there any way to cache the menu logic? Move it to the client?

Thanks,
Chad

If you put the menus into a .js file this will be cached on the client.

450 menu items will slow the menu down though - it's just the way JavaScript and HTML work.

That is what I thought but needed to hear it from you.
