Issue Summary
Can someone explain to me how this integrates/conflicts with boost. I'm using that module now and I don't see any mention on if these can work together or not.
Comments
#1
I'm not using this module, i tried boot before. as long as know both of this modules are for anonymous visitors. so only one of them is enough.
#2
Boost writes out the html of a page to a cache folder and by rewriting .htaccess completely bypasses drupal for anonymous users. It saves a lot of processing by not loading php and drupal. You can then serve these files with a static web server on another port. From my understanding this capability is not in this module. Can someone please elaborate? I really want to take advantage of the XCache capability but don't understand how I can integrate this with my current boost configuration because boost takes over the performance section of the admin interface and without installing this module it seems there maybe a conflict.
#3
@devrman You can user XCache as opcode cache - it brings *n times performance
cacherouter is different - it replaces cacheAPI backends with storage in memcache and shared memory
Suppose theres no conflicts but only possible fast_page_cache - try to set in false
#4
I looked through the boost code and there is nothing preventing these two modules from working together.
#5
OK @slantview thanks, does anyone have an optimal configuration including boost?
#6
Subscribing. Currently using boost, going to try cache router now...
#7
Hello,
I'm also using boost and it seems to work but i still get too many errors on a VPS set to maximum because of a high traffic site, so please can you tell me if for any reason Cache router could be better than Boost in my situation ?
Thanks a lot !
#8
Which kind of errors? You should open an issue into the Boost issue queue, and please give more details or nobody will be able to help you.
#9
Sorry, errors are not caused by boost, but it seems that my site often has problems with memory usage, and even a 4GB server cannot handle it, so this is why i am wondering if Cache router has a different way to work and could help me more than boost to use less memory, or is it the same thing ?
Thanks.
#10
Interesting. Subscribing.
#11
listening.
Currently using boost, would love to see if I can gain XCache benefits too!
#12
I am using CacheRouter (memcached) and Boost and both have been working happily together in a test and beta environment for quite some time now, so no issues to report.
#13
So all you folks using them together - do you simply turn caching back on after Boost disables it, or what?! :)
