I spent a little time playing with memcached today and I must say that I rather like it. The setup was pretty easy and depending on how we would would want to use it I think this could be a nice little feature.
Rather than bother with trying to integrate this into the backend via hibernate I instead decided to just apply it to the page level cache. There are a number of things in the presentation layer caching setup that I think can be cleaned up to make this easier, but so far it hasn't been too bad. It seems to me like we probably don't need to use memcached for more than just the presentation level caching, and means we should be able to keep our implementation pretty simple. thanks for making this suggestion Trygve. -- Allen On Thu, 2005-08-18 at 00:52, Trygve Lie wrote: > Hi > > I do not think static content is the way to go.
