Did you know DnP Instant! Musicbox comes with a great built-in cache feed system that will keep data of your page load on the fly for every visitor*? It can even differ between Guest and Member page to display different information.
What's best of this feature is it absolutely reduces the numbers of queries down to the exact 0 value. Yes, it's totally no query, or database retrieval on load, even all informative blocks are activated.
How much does it save ? Let's say on a crowded board with 200 visits an hour to the musicbox and each page load may take up from 4-15 queries depends on the amount of active blocks. Even though the musicbox is optimized, with that many people connect at the same time, it still consumes huge server resource everytime they access the page. When the cache system is ON , all guests will be directed to pre-rendered page for guest and members have their own, which these pages require no query to run!
Microtime Check On a really big crowded board with Cache OFF :
0.08879610 millisecond
On a really big crowded board with Cache ON :
0.00006652 millisecond
To turn the Cache system ON, simply go to your Configurations and set the following values :
» cache_mainpage yes
» how_many_minutes_to_keep_cache 10 An optimal value for
minutes to keep cache is usually between 2-30 minutes. If your musicbox is very active, 2-15 minutes is the best in order to refresh newly added data while 30 or higher is for typical activity level. Whenever there is new media added, old cache will be automatically cleared.
