sorry but Smarty is a mess. "Oh, but you can use any php function in smarty templates they just use different names and syntax..." i rest my case. Good for caching and select boxes otherwise use php.

@Anonymous:
It is really only three steps, here, I will break it down for you:

1: Finish loading from the database
2: buffer output
3: save it to a timestamped file.

Next time the page loads, check to see if the content is X minutes old. If it is greater than X load it from the database again. No need to use 'Smart'y or any other template language on top of another template language.

@Sean your (dense) insight is truly inspiring.

Or you could avoid the mess that is 'Smart'y and write a small caching function to cache the output of your views (you are using views right?).
