At present I have only properly tested mod_cache with disk caching. It works well - however it does have a need to be flushed on when certain changes are made to the source code and this needs to be done by hand, and then the server restarted. With mod_cache memory, the cache is flushed automatically when the server is restarted, thus making that part easier, and the (mostly theoretical) speed boost by using RAM, but it's too early at present for me to report on it's quirks. It is no surprise that your host doesn't want to run it. All my content is served on systems that I own / control, and are for my exclusive use, and my main web server has 4Gb of RAM to burn. The paradigm is of course different for shared hosts running lots of sites. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ NZ PHP Users Group: http://groups.google.com/group/nzphpug To post, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe, send email to [email protected] -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
