From: Jakub Narebski Date: Sun, 5 Dec 2010 20:48:54 +0000 (+0100) Subject: gitweb/lib - Adaptive cache expiration time X-Git-Url: https://repo.or.cz/w/git/jnareb-git.git/commitdiff_plain/6307fd4d48add6acc9643eeb25880be949481bdb gitweb/lib - Adaptive cache expiration time Add to GitwebCache::SimpleFileCache support for adaptive lifetime (cache expiration) control. Cache lifetime can be increased or decreased by any factor, e.g. load average, through the definition of the 'check_load' callback. Note that using ->set_expires_in, or unsetting 'check_load' via ->set_check_load(undef) turns off adaptive caching. Make gitweb automatically adjust cache lifetime by load, using get_loadavg() function. Define and describe default parameters for dynamic (adaptive) cache expiration time control. There are some very basic tests of dynamic expiration time in t9503, namely checking if dynamic expire time is within given upper and lower bounds.
