Re: CakePHP 3.0.0-alpha2 released

[Joe Theuerkauf]

Quick correction: routes.php link is 404.

Should be (i think): 
*https://github.com/cakephp/app/blob/master/config/routes.php*

Re: CakePHP 3.0.0-alpha2 released

[José Lorenzo]

Yeah, that's basically my point. We have no full page cache in our site and 
actually very limited use of caching in general, we can serve pages under 
50ms and most of them under 100.

Re: CakePHP 3.0.0-alpha2 released

[Thomas von Hassel]

If you use good caching of expensive database requests, and offload static 
files to a CDN there is no need to bother with full page caching for most sites.

Our CMS with warm caches can display a somewhat complicated page in about 
100-200 ms ...

Re: CakePHP 3.0.0-alpha2 released

[HK]

Why isn't needed? Why do I have to bother the server with more proccessing? 
I have for example a (medium size) VPS with 40+ domains. Some of them use 
cakePHP, and hopefully more in the future.
While each site is rather small (some with many pageviews though) all of 
them are hosted on the same server. 

Moreover you can achieve less page load times which IS crucial for 
visitors, SEO, etc.

For those small sites, is having full page cache actually needed? I would 
guess that performance wouldn't be a big concern in those cases

Once we release the beta we are going to focus more in plugins, such as
