Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
I’m not seeing any of the cached, fresh, etc messages that Zem spoke of. Can someone help me troubleshoot?
I am wrapping my front page (here) with zem_cache (without any attributes)
Before plugin:
Before Zem Cache:
<!-- Runtime: 0.8459 -->
<!-- Query time: 0.42659 -->
<!-- Queries: 68 -->
<!-- Memory: no info available -->
I dropped cache in my browser. Reload and go.
<!-- Runtime: 0.3418 -->
<!-- Query time: 0.153885 -->
<!-- Queries: 69 -->
<!-- Memory: no info available -->
and again…
<!-- Runtime: 0.4252 -->
<!-- Query time: 0.191612 -->
<!-- Queries: 68 -->
<!-- Memory: no info available -->
It actually got worse?
Any ideas?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
I’ve just moved my site to a new host, and because of that my temp directory has changed. Of course I’ve changed the location of the temp directory in the site preferences, but this plugin still seems to be searching for files in the old location.
How would I go about erasing all old caching data and starting afresh?

The plugin stores a preference in the database. You can use phpmyadmin and remove the row from the preferences table. The plugin will then re-create it.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
Matthew: those figures show an improvement, albeit a small one. Lower numbers are better.
If you’re not seeing those messages (they show up in html comments), it probably means the plugin isn’t working. Check that it’s enabled, try testing and debug mode, etc.

Is this plugin still available?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
It should be. The download link is broken?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
Just installed it on 4.0.4. No timeout set. I’m seeing files in the cache directory, but they are all zero-byte empty files. Shouldn’t I be seeing something?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
Version 0.5 works on 4.0.5 too. But I only wrap the tag around “expensive” tags like stw_category_tree and not the whole page as suggested in the instructions.
Using it this way reduced page load times on those pages significantly, from 20-30 seconds to 1 or 2 seconds (my site has around 100 categories in 3 levels of hierarchy).

the initial post holds an outdated link. it should be edited by a mod or something to include this link:

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
Hi – zem_cache was working beautifully for me. Now, some of the pages it is used on displays the comment “cache bypassed”.
Any idea how this happened and would someone please help get it working again? Zem_cache is important for my site because it greatly reduces the load times & server load for some of my pages (see my post above).
Things I’ve done to try and fix the problem:- checked to make sure tag is okay on my page template;
- reinstalled zem_cache
- flushed cache
- changed tmp directory
Thanks for any help.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] zem_cache: experiment
Can anyone give me a good reason to use this instead of asy_jpcache? Just wondering if maybe I’d be better served by caching common elements across pages, as far as browser loading times for site visitors.
