Caching for Coppermine

[kingspice]

Due to the high amounts of traffic on my site coppermine is using up stupid amounts of memory on my server. I heard that I could use some kind of caching to help reduce server load.

Was wondering if anybody could suggest what php/sql caching system i might want to use with coppermine.

Thanks

The "virtual" albums such as random, most viewed, last additions, etc that are added on every page of your CPG gallery eat up a lot of resources when generating content. If you don't need them, I would sugguest removing them. This will speed up your gallery a lot.

There are code contributions by GGallery that speed up mySQL queries. This has not been verified by our dev team so if you choose to use them I would recommend backing up.

Also the question of optimization has been asked before and will be addressed in cpg1.5.x a future release of CPG.

I would also recommend searching the boards for optimizations. There are a few user code contributions that you may find helpful.
