Anything for memcached and mysql?

Submitted by sociallyfamous on Fri, 2015-03-20 00:51 in

My hosting company proposed to improve performance by using the already installed memcached caching system. They send me this link.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/ha-memcached-interfaces-php.html

Do you have any idea what they are talking about and do you by any chance have any info on implementation of that with PT?

Thanks once again.

Hi,

memcached is interesting and certainly useful in some scenarios but key/value pair storage in RAM is unlikely to be of assistance to an application such as Price Tapestry i'm afraid since the queries are, by nature of relatively complex, at least in terms of the WHERE clauses necessary to provide the functionality. I'll have a look through the features and see if there may be areas in which it might provide an improvement, but the likelihood is i'm afraid that these would only be in areas that are fast and therefore no impact on performance anyway!

Cheers,
David.
