I thought of making an implementation like that, but it can make too many files. . . . The indexed disk cache is the fastest way to go. It's keeps a handle on the data file and just skips into position to read. . . . > > > You can use the jdbc disk cache backed by mysql. > It > > can be shared. > > We use JCS mainly because of DB load problems :) Yes, of course. You don't use your OLTP database for the cache. You run additional MySQL instances for cached data . . . For JCS I run a remote server cluster. Each is backed by its own MySQL instance running on the same box as the JCS server.
