Hi,
        A) yes it is good idea to share assets cache
        B and C)
        Cache will grow for ever taking 2 much disk space possible with useless 
entries.
        Using one instance to do expires is a option, it will even try to not 
delete assets in use, but just on that instance, so not that useful in this 
case, just waste of cpu.
        Using a external tool (both windows cmd and bash have usable commands) 
to delete files modified long ago is another option.
        Wrong deletes should not be a major issue, assuming all assets are on 
grid databases, if not you are in trouble anyways :)
Regards,
Ubit

Subject: [Opensim-users] What is the best way to manage asset cache on an 
OSgrid set of regions

I run three servers each have a few instances of opensim running on them and 
all of the regions are on OSgrid.

I have a common asset cache  for each servers, that all the instances use.  
Maybe that is not a good idea, but I thought it might help keep it’s size 
smaller than every instance having it’s own asset cache.

Up to now I have not expired any items in the cache.  Yes, they are massive in 
size.

I have been thinking about having one instance expire the cache and using a 
retention time of 48 hours.

Is that a good or bad idea?

I do have a fair amount of activity on each server as I run free home sites for 
many OSgrid users.

I am wondering a few things:

- Is running a single cache for several instances of opensim a good or bad idea?
- Is not expiring the cache a good or bad idea?
- Can one instance do the expiring of the cache for all instances since they 
all share the same cache?

Tom
