I have all the cache.properties set to never expire (commented out), however it seems after I have built up cache at some point the cache is cleared. I have noticed it consistently clears the next day (about a 10 hour window) even if there are no users on the site. Does anyone have any experience with the cache and what are the causes for it to be cleared? Thank You Len Shein [hidden email] [hidden email] 516.742.7888 ext.225 732.333.4303 |

I never noticed that, a good way to share would be to check on trunk demo

I ran some further tests and found the following:
Where 'entity' cache is concerned commenting out (cache.properties) the entries (or no entries at all); the system will 'clear' the cache out at a certain point, I am assuming when GC is run. If a specific entity is defined to have no expire time and 'false' to use soft reference then the built up cache is NOT cleared and built up cache remains. In summary the best approach to cache would be to specifically define the entities in the cache properties file as 'expire time = 0', 'soft reference = false' for the main entities used in rendering a site. In my testing I set the cache.properties for the following entities, all other entries were commented out: Note: There is a comment in the property file stating (for better performance cache lines should be commented out)? # Examples for per-delegator Entity Engine cache settings entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductAssoc.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductAssoc.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductAssoc.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryRollup.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryRollup.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryRollup.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductContent.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductContent.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductContent.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductFeatureAndAppl.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductFeatureAndAppl.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductFeatureAndAppl.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceRule.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceRule.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceRule.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPrice.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPrice.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPrice.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceCond.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceCond.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceCond.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity.default.Product.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity.default.Product.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity.default.Product.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity.default.ProductCaclulatedInfo.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity.default.ProductCaclulatedInfo.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity.default.ProductCaclulatedInfo.maxSize=0 entitycache.entity.default.ProductPriceRule.useSoftReference=false entitycache.entity.default.ProductPriceRule.expireTime=0 entitycache.entity.default.ProductPriceRule.maxSize=0 product.content.rendered.useSoftReference=false product.content.rendered.expireTime=0 product.content.rendered.maxSize=0 -----Original Message----- From: Jacques Le Roux [mailto:[hidden email]] Sent: Friday, January 25, 2013 3:51 AM To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: Cache Clearing I never noticed that, a good way to share would be to check on trunk demo Jacques From: "Len Shein" <[hidden email]> > I have all the cache.properties set to never expire (commented out), however > it seems after I have built up cache at some point the cache is cleared.

I did not look into all details of cache implementation.
But it seems to me that, if nothing is defined, the default values (defined in UtilCache class) are used They are: expireTimeNanos = 0; useSoftReference = false; sizeLimit = 0; etc. Jacques From: "Len Shein" <[hidden email]> >I ran some further tests and found the following: > Where 'entity' cache is concerned commenting out (cache.properties) the > entries (or no entries at all); the system will 'clear' the cache out at a > certain point, I am assuming when GC is run. > > If a specific entity is defined to have no expire time and 'false' to use > soft reference then the built up cache is NOT cleared and built up cache > remains. > > In summary the best approach to cache would be to specifically define the > entities in the cache properties file as 'expire time = 0', 'soft reference > = false' for the main entities used in rendering a site. > > In my testing I set the cache.properties for the following entities, all > other entries were commented out: > Note: There is a comment in the property file stating (for better > performance cache lines should be commented out)? > > # Examples for per-delegator Entity Engine cache settings > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductAssoc.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductAssoc.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductAssoc.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryMember.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryRollup.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryRollup.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductCategoryRollup.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductContent.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductContent.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductContent.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductFeatureAndAppl.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductFeatureAndAppl.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductFeatureAndAppl.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceRule.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceRule.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceRule.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPrice.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPrice.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPrice.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceCond.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceCond.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity-list.default.ProductPriceCond.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity.default.Product.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity.default.Product.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity.default.Product.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity.default.ProductCaclulatedInfo.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity.default.ProductCaclulatedInfo.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity.default.ProductCaclulatedInfo.maxSize=0 > > entitycache.entity.default.ProductPriceRule.useSoftReference=false > entitycache.entity.default.ProductPriceRule.expireTime=0 > entitycache.entity.default.ProductPriceRule.maxSize=0 > > product.content.rendered.useSoftReference=false > product.content.rendered.expireTime=0 > product.content.rendered.maxSize=0 > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jacques Le Roux [mailto:[hidden email]] > Sent: Friday, January 25, 2013 3:51 AM > To: [hidden email] > Subject: Re: Cache Clearing > > I never noticed that, a good way to share would be to check on trunk demo > > Jacques > > From: "Len Shein" <[hidden email]> >> I have all the cache.properties set to never expire (commented out), > however >> it seems after I have built up cache at some point the cache is cleared. > I >> have noticed it consistently clears the next day (about a 10 hour window) >> even if there are no users on the site. >> >> >> >> Does anyone have any experience with the cache and what are the causes for >> it to be cleared? >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> Thank You >> >> >> >> Len Shein >> >> >> >> [hidden email] >> >> [hidden email] >> >> >> >> 516.742.7888 ext.225 >> >> 732.333.4303 >> >> >> >> > |
