Performance

This project is going to put all css files in to one file for screen and one for print, also put all js files together too.

Abandoned

This fork is now the 6.x-2.x branch of ESI<

Static page caching with asynchronous "ESI" capabilities and graceful recaching. This is more of an academic exercise and a hobby project than anything else. It's not an attempt to compete with other caching modules, like Boost.

Goals

• Work out of the box for any Drupal installation
• Scalability through graceful recaching either by queueing requests or background processing
• Extra performance through page_cache_fastpath() and mod_rewrite rules
• Prevent thundering herds
• Supply self-contained cache invalidation without having to rely on a cron job handling this

Requirements

• Background Process for graceful caching
• Drupal Queue for graceful caching via queued requests

Caveat

If using NFS for storing cache files, this will only work with NFS v3, as file locking is used.

Performance

Preliminary synthetic benchmarks using "ab -n1000 -c1" on the frontpage (D6):

Sandbox - implement queue support for imageinfo_cache.

Provides a manual method for clearing Varnish based on various criteria (including filetype, Drupal menu etc)
