Seeking reviews for an improvement to Memcache's time-based expiration/invalidation logic

Posted by damienmckenna on July 31, 2015 at 12:56am

Hello there.

While working on a large site a coworker discovered that there was a problem with the Memcache module's cache clearing and time-based expiration & invalidation.

My coworker devised a very simple scenario that tested what the Memcache module was doing:

ol>

Store some data in the cache via cache_set($data, $cid).

Verify what data is contained in the cache using cache_get($cid).

Clear the entire cache bin via cache_clear_all('*', $bin, TRUE).

Drupal Performance Resources

Posted by charginghawk on August 5, 2015 at 2:26pm

I've started collecting resources on Drupal performance in a "Big / Badass List"-style Github repo:

https://github.com/charginghawk/drupal-performance-resources

Mainly it addresses the lack of a performance factoid on the #drupal IRC channel. If anybody has any suggestions for good articles or blogs on Drupal performance, please let me know, or even make a pull request!

Also, I'd love to filter the Drupal Planet feed to posts on the topic of performance - if anybody has ideas on how to do this, please let me know.

Alternative Drupal Implementation in Node.js or other languages?

Posted by thomas4019 on August 22, 2015 at 4:44am

Has anyone thought about or done any work on doing an implementation of Drupal in a different language? I'm thinking of something that can use the same MySQL database and probably has the same front-end ui. I have really liked Drupal and I feel its data model with fields and such is great, but I think PHP is really holding it back and making it unnecessarily slow and complicated.

Posted by mikeytown2 on October 14, 2015 at 10:47pm

Decided to see what's causing a slow cache clear on our D7 site. Below are the functions that should be looked at to see if they can be optimized.

field_views_data 172ms
_theme_build_registry 1242ms
imageapi_optimize_init 36ms (contains eval!)
token_info 506ms

Posted by christefano on November 17, 2015 at 8:40pm

Just in time for the expected increase in traffic to coincide with the release of Drupal 8, all the content and files on Drupal.org have been migrated to Fastly!

Joshua Mitchell (joshuami), CTO of the Drupal Association, just posted this great writeup a few days ago:

We are so stoked to announce our partnership with Fastly. Fastly is now serving up all of our traffic from the *.drupal.org domain Drupal sites and related services.

Fastly will be at the Drupal 8 Release Party: Los Angeles this Thursday to demonstrate their real-time CDN, how to integrate it with Drupal (both Drupal 7 & Drupal 8 are supported), and to answer any of your questions.

Their presentation will be streamed via Zoom. Please be sure to have Zoom installed and stay tuned to @GLADrupal on Twitter for the video conferencing information.

Fork Drupal for High Performance purposes.

Posted by Riki_tiki_tavi on November 25, 2015 at 9:45am

Today Drupal becomes a very big part of the Web. It's a very powerful tool for creating a small or medium site of any kind with minimal effort. It may satisfy almost all business needs on the market.

But there is a big gap between business card website which have 50 visitors per day on 10 pages and a high performance site which should handle 1k+ visitors per day and serve 500k+ pages.
Right now I can see a lot of contrib modules which are solving some of the performance problems that will certainly appears while your site traffic is growing.

Personalisation / Custom caching

Posted by swigle on March 14, 2016 at 4:04pm

Hi all,

I want to build a module that handels caching and is able to deal with altering pieces of content based on some variables.

For a client we've developed a D7 site a couple of years back. The site is high-traffic and serves a lot of visitors but only anonymous users. The site uses views, panels and panels everywhere for it's layout, general pagecaching for cache and all media comes from a CDN. Everything works great!
