AO and memcached

No, AO as such has little to no use for memcached, as it does not get data from the database which could be stored in memcache and as the cache it stores itself has to be available to the webserver to be able to serve the cache autoptimize_xyz.js and .css files.

nice 🙂

hi peter;
always interested, but it seems as though they already play together nicely anyway? but if you have ideas, shoot! you can reach me at futtta-at-gmail-dot-com.

As far as I understand, FFPC allows memcache to be used to cache pages (HTML). Caching CSS & JS in memcache would be uneffictive, as the static autoptimized CSS/ JS-files needs to be directly available for the webserver.

hope this clarifies,

Just thought it would be useful if one has more than one servers. Since one file which could be requested in the generated html from one server, is not available on the other…

you’ve got a point there, but even if the autoptimized CSS/JS would be in memcache, it would not be available for static file requests through your webserver.

for such a scenario, I think the best scenario is using the Autoptimize CDN-field, using a (specific) pull CDN to make those files available for all. alternatively you could share the wp-content/cache/autoptimize-dir between the servers?
