In
/etc/koha/sites/<site_name>/koha-conf.xml
it was

    <use_zebra_facets>1</use_zebra_facets>

which I changed to

    <use_zebra_facets>0</use_zebra_facets>

but the speed has not improved much. I have two questions:

    1. I restarted apache2; is there any `restarting' of Koha that needs to
be done?

    2. Is it necessary to change the value in
/etc/koha/koha-conf-site.xml.in also? I have not done that.

Perhaps we would just move to 16.11 or 17.05 instead of trying to speed up
the current OPAC.

Thank you.

Manoj.
