Hi, just a quick question - how do I increase the page caching from 5
minutes to something much more?

My site has mostly static content other than the use of the comments
extension which itself clears the cache when the page changes. I think it would make a great difference to the performance to set the cache time out
to a much larger value.

My understanding is that I should add a line to
MYRADIANTAPP/config/environment.rb where it says:
  # Response Caching Defaults
  ResponseCache.defaults[:directory] =
ActionController::Base.page_cache_directory
  ResponseCache.defaults[:logger]    = ActionController::Base.logger

i can't recall exactly how it worked in 0.7 (search the radiant source
for "5.minutes" and you'll find the code that controls it) but in 0.8
there is a method on SiteController called cache_timeout that you use
to set the timeout to whatever you like. i stuck
`SiteController.cache_timeout = 60.minutes` in environment.rb fired up
a rails console, ran SiteController.cache_timeout.value and sure
enough i get 3600 back.

in something less than 0.8.0:

ResponseCache.defaults[:expire_time] = 12.hours

Otherwise, in 0.8.0 and greater, john is right:

SiteController.cache_timeout = 12.hours
