I guess it would depend on the type of updates you mean. If you mean updates to displayPageStandard or something similar, those changes will show up as soon as your cache expires. If you mean new types / rules, then you could do a "coapi" update through the admin > developers tools tab. On my site, however, this still renders the site more or less inoperable as the application assumes the coapi structure is there in memory when it is in fact being rebuilt. I don't know if this has changed in 5.1. For my site, it is not a huge deal, and I try to do it around midnight or early in the morning to mitigate disruptions.
Any other feedback from others would be highly appreciated as well. On Wed, Feb 4, 2009 at 10:09 AM, nicholas sollecito <[email protected]>wrote: > > This is something I'm curious about myself...
