Read moreNew caching module for Drupal 6
So, some people have been asking about memcache for Drupal 6 and my personal modules have been neglected, but meanwhile I decided to come up with something new.
Let me introduce you to Cache Router. http://drupal.org/project/cacherouter
From the project page:
"CacheRouter is a caching system for Drupal allowing you to assign individual cache tables to specific cache technology. CacheRouter also utilizes the page_fast_cache part of Drupal in order to reduce the amount of resources needed for serving pages to anonymous users."

What about these 2 wiki's?
http://groups.drupal.org/node/21897
http://groups.drupal.org/node/57563
Either way we should have one source.
I thought I'd create a Wiki listing of all modules that can help beginners and intermediary drupal users (like myself) to optimise their websites' pageloads. Please enter the modules that you are familiar with, and few words of description/review/rating would also be helpful.

Read moreUsing News aggregator or Views/Block
I have a quick question for Drupal Performance Experts.
We wish to show stories from a particular section, Say Health, on all our pages.
The plan is to show the latest stories from that section as a Block on every page of the site.
What will be better way is terms of performance ?
Using RSS feed of that section in News aggregator ?
Or making a view to fetch Stories from that section and to display them on the pages ? (i guess this will use more resources)
Please help.
Thanks

Improving Drupal's Search Speed Under Load Conditions
Trellon recently released the Xapian search module for Drupal. This replaces Drupal's standard search feature seamlessly (except for a core patch) with an interface to the Xapian search engine. There's a post about it over on Trellon.com.

Is it a good idea to have one big css file?
I always thought small css file will increase drupal performance. thats why I split my css depends on which node its loading. I have separate css file for forum, story .....
this is the css file i include for my drupal front page.
@import "/sites/all/modules/geshifilter/geshifilter.css";
@import "/sites/all/themes/bluebreeze/css/views-list-forum_posts.css";
@import "/sites/all/themes/bluebreeze/css/views-list-latest_articles.css";
CDN notes
Greetings,
We're preparing to rollout a CDN for our Drupal implementation and would like to get notes of other people's experiences.
We have about 1/2 million images that we primarily want to push out to a network.
There is a CDN module, http://drupal.org/project/cdn, that we've been looking at, however the author states:
"... it doesn't scale yet (yes, that's pretty ironic since the exact goal is better scalability ..."
Thanks,
Arman.
