http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98 <p> Concerns have been raised about Boost's side-effects on the site's behaviour, logging and server. I therefore propose: </p> <p> 1) Disable Boost 2) Install Cache Router <a class="ext-link" href="http://drupal.org/project/cacherouter"><span class="icon">​</span>http://drupal.org/project/cacherouter</a> with File back end to start with 3) Enable, test, disable, test, compare 4) Confer/decide with Chris &amp; Charles to see which other back end cache they recommend (though file works brilliantly on 3 sites for me) from APC, Memcache or Memcached 5) Enable tweaks, test 6) Uninstall Boost (or possibly re-enable it for any data-heavy pages that are hit a lot, though realistically we'd be better going with Varnish instead) </p> <p> This will give us a faster, greener, better website with no Boost-related side effects... </p> en-us /trac/chrome/site/TransitionNetwork-Logo-Web-Small.jpg http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98 Trac 0.12.5 ed Thu, 22 Jul 2010 14:47:43 GMT http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98#comment:1 http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>priority</strong> changed from <em>major</em> to <em>critical</em> </li> <li><strong>estimatedhours</strong> set to <em>0.0</em> </li> <li><strong>billable</strong> unset </li> </ul> <p> putting to critical to get it done - proceed with this - further to a chat with charles gaiahost, we agreed that better communications between tn and gaia would go a long way - as much of the work done to optimise phase 1 was beating head against wall (my words) </p> Ticket jim Fri, 06 Aug 2010 15:00:41 GMT http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98#comment:2 http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98#comment:2 <ul> <li><strong>owner</strong> changed from <em>Jim</em> to <em>jim</em> </li> <li><strong>status</strong> changed from <em>new</em> to <em>accepted</em> </li> </ul> <p> Boost uninstalled, Cache Router installed but not configured... </p> Ticket jim Mon, 09 Aug 2010 20:47:58 GMT http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98#comment:3 http://localhost:8080/trac/ticket/98#comment:3 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> changed from <em>accepted</em> to <em>closed</em> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> set to <em>fixed</em> </li> </ul> <p> <a class="missing wiki">CacheRouter?</a> now configured and running. </p> <p> Would be nice to do some benchmarks with and without... </p> <p> Site *seems* faster though. </p> Ticket
