[Koha-devel] memcached?

NYTprof combined with firebug (or chrome dev tools) can give you the
comprehensive picture.   The former atomizes and itemizes the server side
costs.  The latter details the client side, including graphs of time spent
downloading vs. rendering, per file.

Storing as temp files on a ram based disk as has already been
suggested works much the same way too. Of course a patch for using
memcached for session storage would be gratefully accepted and would
save on once again doubling up on work already done.

We use memcached to a huge extent at work, including storing session
data, and have yet to have any real problems occur.

I concur, MySQL is usually not the bottleneck, unless the site is
under extreme load, the startup cost of perl is a major factor, as
Mason has suggested mysql, zebra and in fact apache2 can fight each
other for I/O and CPU. Different partitions/disks for mysql and zebra
can provide an easy win.

One thing that the Profiler won't tell you, is how fast your browser
can render the pages, Koha 3.2 (and 3.0) before it have a lot more css
and js on the intranet that previous versions. Different browsers can
render the page quite a bit faster, also the expires headers suggested
by Mason will stop the browser refetching things that it doesn' t need
too.

We found at HLT with the new site, that using Chrome instead of
Firefox on the circ desk provided a 2-3 second speed up in page
render.  Something worth trying.
