Cache by theme or role

Posted by BenPalmer on November 13, 2009 at 4:42am

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to cache pages based on role or theme.

I have a site set up using mobile tools to switch themes depending on PC/Mobile and then within Mobile adjustments are made for the various carriers.

The site shares the same content in most respects, but has different layout and structure between mobile and PC, and the different mobile carriers output slightly different formatting (it's for Japanese mobiles).

I tried using boost, which was awesome but as my pages use the same urls, it turned the mobile pages into the PC pages.

Cache Router + Memcache: What is shared bins?

Posted by emcee0 on November 14, 2009 at 1:35am

I'm using Cacherouter with Memcache and I'm curious what the diffference is between setting up shared to true or shared to false. I've been reading through a lot of documentation and it doesn't make sense to me.

"If you are using memcache as a "shared" bin, it will keep track of each item so that the flush only clears the bin and not the entire process This will allow to do things like use just one large memcache process. If you set "shared" to false, the module assumes that you have assigned one memcache process to each bin. "

Drupal 6 and mysql persistent connections

Posted by ilya1st on November 15, 2009 at 11:02am

Hello.
I've created mysq version of database.mysql.inc to correctly work with mysql_pconnect to make available persistent connections.
The main problems were table locks and temporary tables - I've solved it using register_shutdown_function() for script.
Now looks like all working properly.(one project runs using this patched version)

But this patch is for case site using one database only. File is attached.

UC Berkeley interested in Drupal Systems Consulting

Posted by bwood on November 17, 2009 at 8:02pm

Use of Drupal is exploding here at UC Berkeley. The campus doesn't have a good solution for Drupal hosting in place. For the past year it has been my vision to create an environment to do Drupal hosting the right way. I have done a lot of work an have some solutions in place. Now we want to get our plans reviewed reviewed by a LAMP/Drupal systems expert. Does anyone have recommendations for a systems consultant?

What is an average Drupal pageload?

Posted by BenPalmer on November 27, 2009 at 11:30am

Hi,

I have been trying out various cache modules to bring the cpu load down on my drupal site.
I was having trouble seeing this work but started using devel performance monitor.

What is has shown me is that practically all my pages consume a 24-25 mb of memory.

However the milliseconds were chopped in half by the cache from 1351 to 518ms.
Actually the 1351 page was at 31mb and dropped to 25mb so the cache is doing a good job.

But also from looking at the performance it seems even the logging page comes in at 21mb.
Is this normal?

Getting server settings correct after server crash

Posted by wxman on November 27, 2009 at 8:07pm

Hi all

This is my first post here, so forgive me if I mess up.
My system is running Ubuntu server 8.04 on a Xen virtual server. I have several web site, but currently only one live Drupal 6.14 site. Last week, I had a major failure of the one "live" Drupal site. It's a ecommerce one using the Ubercart system. The site owner ran a promotion special for the first 100 people to buy something after midnight....etc. A few minutes after midnight, the whole thing locked up with the memory and CPU both maxed out. Long story short, I was able to get it under control, but I had the fiddle the Apache and Mysql settings quite a bit.
