I have been looking into using cake for a few projects, and performance
related issues are exactly what I am worried about...
Would it be not possible to cache certain data/metadata at runtime once
you are in production mode (and not in dev mode) such as mysql
metadata. Some other things I can think of is parsing and caching
layout templates, information on views, metadata information about
probably controllers/helpers/models/etc using lazy caching (cache as
you go).
One more thing that worried me was the fact that caching system was
built-into the core and that it is not replacable. For example, I want
to use memcached which is way waster than using php files for caching,
and for that it looks like I need to go into core and hack it, which is
the last thing I want to do...

I've been using cake for about 3 weeks now (extremely intensively), and
it is a marvellous tool for developing sites quickly and being able to
divide work up between developers in a logical way.However, with speeds
at a *minimum* of 0.2 seconds per page regardless of what's on them, I
am concerned.
The current site which I am revamping has at present *maximum* speeds
of 0.03 seconds for the home page, and it needs to be this tight
because it is a high traffic site (2m+ PIs per month). And although I'm
pleased to see that CakePHP version 1.2 has stopped carrying around
1Mb+ of repeated information in arrays, its processing speed is still
on the slow side.
What I'm looking for is a way of altering bootsrap and basics (which
appear to be the main culrpits -http://www.cakephp.org/profile.png) to
bypass some of this processor intensive stuff and replace it with
static text (for example, setting up a flat file of arrays of my SQL
table structure rather than cake looking for it the whole time). Does
anyone know how to go about this? I have presently only been looking
into *how* CakePHP works (to get my project up to speed), and not *why*
it works, so I would be grateful for the Cake aficionados to point me
in the right direction.
Perhaps I'm missing something and in the same way that you have the
bake function, you might also have a 'decorate' function that would do
what I am asking, but I can't find it anywhere and I am losing sleep
over the site performance.
