New description:

 hi..
 i had an idea - developers should have an ability to set a constant i.e.

 `USE_STATIC_CUSTOM_MENU('menu_name') = true;`

 in general, output of custom_menus on front-end, takes long (sometimes 1
 second)..
 so, i think, that the custom-menu output should be saved as static string,
 and that should be output on front-end request by visitors...
 and that static string should be changed/ updated every time the custom-
 menu is edited, or when any of that custom-menu's item is modified...
 i think, it will save huge resources over millions of sites/hosting..

 p.s. of course, somehow, "current-menu-item" should be added while front-
 end request..

Comment:

 Hey there

 Thanks for creating this ticket. What you suggest is fragment caching for
 nav menus, which was already proposed in #36225. I'm therefore closing
 this as a duplicate.
