We could/should rsync these files just for sanity/backup/duplication reasons. Never can have too many live copies. Am a tad reluctant to mirror/sync these files since we store all files in one big directory - logos in one, photos in another. The directories have thousands of files and growing. Currently, perhaps 6k files per directory maximum- entirely too many in one directory- but for now. I suppose I am looking for an endorsement from someone about using rsync in such a manner with a big pile of files in several directories. Anything out there that monitors file system live time and reflects new changes/files near live time versus timed event basis? > BTW, independently of which option to end up implementing, it's important to > tweak I/O-cache if you are looking for performance.

I need more information on the Advanced options in Cherokee. Can't say I know what to be adjusting for this. Perhaps we can discuss and put something together to document this - perhaps to go up on the cookbook for other people venturing into similar territory with Cherokee. _______________________________________________ Cherokee mailing list [email protected] http://lists.octality.com/listinfo/cherokee
