TranslationCache=enabled rewrites cache on each request - possible bug?

Wednesday 03 November 2010 3:55:09 am

Hy community,

I found out that enabling TranslationCache (which is ON by default in settings/site.ini) regenerates/rewrites the cache-files in /var/<sitename>/cache/translation/* on each request. This surely can not be the desired behavior as this implies heavy operations on the php-side on each request and makes everything a few milliseconds slower ;-) .

I could verify that on a clean installed eZPublish 4.3 and 4.4, using a vanilla install with ezflow demo content package.

When I disable TranslationCache (TranslationCache=disabled) in settings/override/site.ini.append.php those files were not written and thankfully the ViewCache took care of caching stuff.

Could someone please verify before I file a bug?
What is the desired behaviour? Am I missing something?

The behavior can be verified/watched with linux-strace-command on apache and by simply "tail -f var/<site>/log/storage.log ".

Thanks,

Ah, great! Didn't found that issue when searching for TranslationCache in the tracker. Thanks for pointing out.

It seems to be fixed for the next release of eZPublish: 4.5, which is due in april or may 2011 ...

Will mark this thread as solved. Enough Information was shared and a workaround as well as an issue-link have been communicated.
