Some pmdev members are testing the new node cache. Message inbox and pmdev's wiki both suck for discussions. So problem reports and such should go here.

The new node cache is pretty much a complete rewrite which gives us about two- or three-times more efficiency when reading nodes and tons more efficiency when updating nodes (fifty-times in a simple, realistic example) and reduces the race conditions to where they should no longer matter.

I'll post more details, explanation, and even the code later.

Thanks,

Re: Testing new node cache (order by)

    Thanks for finding the first big problem with this round of testing, y'all.

    Yes, the "order by" parameter was changed to a "misc" parameter and it tries to be backward compatable so that old code that uses it as "order by" will still work. I haven't looked at the specific case yet (busy with my day job), but I will ASAP. The backward compatability must need adjusting...

      The "order by" problem has been fixed.

      Now to figure out why code display doesn't work (it works just fine outside of mod_perl)...

      - tye        

        The "code display" problem was some big problems in handling usergroups so I'm cleaning up group handling. Things are finally picking up on this front so I hope to have it working fairly soon...

    tye,
    Between 2100 and 2120 (EST) on 2005-06-10, I experienced the following error three times:
    Server Error The following error occurred: [code=SERVER_RESPONSE_CLOSE] The server closed the connection while re +ading the response. Contact your system administrator. Please contact the administrator.
    This was browsing the site normally and may or may not be related - just not something I usually see.
