Google Sitemap Generator takes longer with vbSEO installed

I've been able to run the Google Sitemap Generator prior to installing vbSEO, but now it starts, and the last line I see is...

[SECTION START] showthread [3,799.8Kb mem used] [0s (+0)]

It seems it takes a bit longer to run with vbSEO installed, because from the command line, it completes successfully after a few minutes.

I now have the vbseo_sitemap.php script running via the command line in cron.

Can I assume that there isn't any difference between running it in the command line, and running it via the vBulletin scheduled tasks?

Hello,

yes, it takes more time to generate sitemap with vBSEO enabled URLs because it there is additional load to translate all URLs to a seo links.

And yes, it is fine to have sitemap generated by a system cron execution - it works exactly in the same way.
