Hi Arto,

Your site states you will at some point port this patch to Drupal 5. Just wanted to see where you are on this?

fastpath_fscache.module may be doing something similar to this module as it's also a static file based cache. Is it not possible to work together if the two methods are identical?

Thanks, and keep up the good work!

See #153179.

Note that only superficially is fastpast_fscache similar to Boost (in that they both deal with 'static' files). The difference is that the former still incurs PHP overhead, while Boost does not (when serving cached files with Boost, Apache will not invoke PHP at all). This has significant scaling implications (in Boost's favor, of course).
