Any of you fellow big boards using datastore caching in 3.6.x?

Any of you guys using APC/memcached/FileSystem datastore caching in 3.6.x?

I am wondering what query hits I will save on from enabling it.

Will I only save on a single select from the datastore table when a page is loaded?

I can't find much documentation on it another then how to enable it.

Have any of you guys noticed an improvement or any problems after enabling it?

Very little if you only use it for the datastore.

Memcached store objects in memory, eAccelerator stores opcode in memory.

Thnx Orban..
then eAcclerator + Memcache(http://pecl.php.net/package/memcache)
and Ioncube can stay together ?

[orban]

Yes that's correct. They come in at different parts of a request.

[Zia]

umm umm maybe a dumbs qus...

using it..any way to see what/how its caching things ?

how to determine memcache is working properly?

like eAcclerator shows a summury like bellow




memcahce ? how to check its performace?

and how much memory it will use (64mb)..have to fix it durinng installation?

and what r those stands for:

memcache.allow_failover
memcache.max_failover_attempts
memcache.chunk_size
memcache.default_port

Table of Contents

Memcache::add — Add an item to the server
Memcache::addServer — Add a memcached server to connection pool
Memcache::close — Close memcached server connection
Memcache::connect — Open memcached server connection
memcache_debug — Turn debug output on/off
Memcache::decrement — Decrement item's value
Memcache::delete — Delete item from the server
Memcache::flush — Flush all existing items at the server
Memcache::get — Retrieve item from the server
Memcache::getExtendedStats — Get statistics from all servers in pool
Memcache::getServerStatus — Returns server status
Memcache::getStats — Get statistics of the server
Memcache::getVersion — Return version of the server
Memcache::increment — Increment item's value
Memcache:.pconnect — Open memcached server persistent connection
Memcache::replace — Replace value of the existing item
Memcache::set — Store data at the server
Memcache::setCompressThreshold — Enable automatic compression of large values
Memcache::setServerParams — Changes server parameters and status at runtime

this table of contents functions are built it? no other xtra modules are needed?

we use: eaccellerator + memcached + lighttpd

any one?
any idea datastore cache with Xcache?

[Mickie D]

i use the datastore with memcached

i run the memcache server on the same server as my mysql database (which also runs the sphinx server)

consider sphinx aswell for search i have found off setting the search has also been fantastic shame the sphinx thread is not being looked at because a few bugs fixed and it will be the best thing around!

i found memcache better than APC for the datastore (taking the load from the apache server) but APC is awsome with the "plugin based template cache" i found this probably the best load reducer out of them all... and page load times are amazing.

im going to be adding a new server soon with lighttp to serve the static stuff as this looks like a nice way of doing stuff and heard alot of good reviews, also looking into putting the downloads onto another server aswell (lots of arguments for and against)

there is many things that can be done but you will need to try them for yourself believe me you will be adding alot in the next few years and testing things out

wel...Xcache is better tha eAcc/APC as opcode cacher..
now Xcache started to support vb datastore cache...

FYI everyone: "better" as in "I couldn't figure out how to get APC and eAccelerator to work".

for Xcache
