Is this a good idea to use file caching on article/news style php websites with 10-15k records to solve PHP performance problems?
Is it better to use something like “cache_lite” than fetching an article or news from database by a “SELECT” query?
What about members profile pages? (~200k)
Well you should defiantly use cache. It helps speed things up when you have many/large queries to execute.
You can even cache part of the article or whatever you want. You can cache whole pages if you wanted.
Check out memcache’ing http://php.net/memcache
Hope this helps.
