Well, technically when you cache something, you are creating a cache file which is a static html file. So if you have 1,000 users then it would create 1,000 separate cache files. This would not slow down if you have enough space on machine, as you would read in one file only per user. It is advisable to cache elements only if you are gaining significant savings in SQL queries and computational time. If you have single SQL query, then probably its not the best idea to cache element as it would not add much overhead. Its all about performance optimization.
I have written a cake article for caching elements individually for each user but it is pending approval. The url is http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/cache-elements-individually-for-each-user Hope I answered your questions, Ketan On Jul 13, 3:37 pm, inVINCable <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ketan Patel, > I am attempting to do the exact same thing and am running into > trouble.
