Introduction

This module allows Drupal cache bins to be stored in files.

Comparison with other caching modules

memcache is the closest caching module. File Cache can be configured to use a memory based filesystem (e.g. /dev/shm in Debian) which is very close to what memcache does. File Cache can use network filesystems and this
is another use case where memcache is traditionally used.

apc can be used for cache bins too. If it's used for that purpose,
it's usually only for some of the critical cache bins like cache and
cache_bootstrap.

boost generates caches of pages that are directly served by web
server. File Cache can plug in regular Drupal page caching and provide
very fast page caching but this still needs a bit of PHP to be
executed. Database access can be avoided altogether though. See
$conf['filecache_fast_pagecache'] in README.txt.
