I installed this mod in the middle of the day on the 20th. Here is some hard proof that it is working wonderfully; stats from my database server's bandwidth. (outbound is mostly database data going to the web server to render a page)
pay no attention to the data compiled for today the 22nd as it is not complete
I should include that last sunday's traffic (14th) was very similar to this sunday's (21st). I am using memcache. There is also a similar trend on the web server's inbound data.
Outbound bandwidth has decreased by ~47% on the database server!!! (based one day of similar data) What does this mean for most of you? Fewer database queries = lower server load = faster site = happy forum users!
Bottom line: This mod is going to save me money as I am currently going over on my bandwidth as well as improve user experience!
