Optimizing view cache with logged in user

Thursday 10 December 2009 6:48:15 am

My main problem is that the view cache is re-generated for every user and every user is different (because there are logged in).

In fact, this is partly wrong (with the default settings). the view cache is shared between users that have the same roles. In other words, two users with the same rights will use the same view cache file unless you set some ViewCacheTweaks settings in site.ini/[ContentSettings] (see settings/site.ini for some details)

Anyway, to optimize your site you can try to nest cache-block in view templates or in existing cache-block to cache parts that do not depend on the user rights so generation of new cache files uses parts that are already generated.

You can also try to improve performances at the front end side because the load all the stuff around a page (CSS, image, JS, ...) usually takes 80% of the page load time felt by the user.

That's great, thank you both of you !

@dpobel : front side is already optimized ( ezjscore packing for css and js, png optimization, mod_deflate and mod_gzip on, .. :-) )

I try these tweaks and tell you more ;-)
