I'm like a blind man tuning a television! I understand from the documentation that I can tune the setting in cocoon.xconf to control the cache, so that the most recently used objects are in memory and less recently used objects are on disk. But a few points are unclear to me - could someone please expain?
<cache-transient class="org.apache.cocoon.components.store.MRUMemoryStore" logger="core.store.transient"> <parameter name="maxobjects" value="100"/> <parameter name="use-persistent-cache" value="true"/> </cache-transient> 1) Does 'maxobject' just define the max number of objects in memory? Or does it include the items on disk? 2) When <parameter name="use-persistent-cache" value="true"/> do the cached objects go onto disk only when maxobjects is exceeded? 3) Is there any control over the number of objects on the disk? 4) When the store-janitor decides to free memory, do the freed items go to persistent-cache or are they lost? When I change these settings I am unable to see what is happening. I've tried using the status page and its a great start but there's not enough detail. 1) I can see total and free memory and some details about the objects in cache. 2) I don't know which are in memory and which are on disk and how much space they take up. If I don't know this then how can I tell if my settings are working, and how do I make decisions to change the settings? Simple trial and error is not very usefull because I cannot get enough feedback about what is happening. Any advice very welcome. Thanks.
