Hey Mark,
The problem i know in some situation cache can cause more problems,but the real problem ,is that without cache,the site is loading entirely badly,i mean how does 1minute 2 minute sound to you ???For an user is long away,i can confirm that,with my own logs,more then 70+ of my traffic is gone,and that is because of speed i did not used cache,but i was basically like an Walking Zombie.
Now the cache by itself,it does not solve the problem of loading,because in joomla i have many components,plugins and so on,so cache is doing an part of the job and jchoptmize is doing the rest, i even contacted the guys from smartaddons from were i get the template,to check what is wrong,maybe is something from their side,and we need just to exclude some javascript and things will work back on,i cannot know that,that is why we are here to solve the problems out.
So if i load in 1 minute without no cache and no jchoptmize,i`m like dead you know ?Basically i cannot operate.
It does not even matter ,easyblog 5 or other stuff haves great features,and it really does.
And by the way,i`m not in shared hosting,i`m using dedicated hosting with 4gb of memory and 8cpu threads,so there is not only software,is also hardware on my side.
I even asked my system admin to go on php5.5 because in there i have opcache,and with it turned on,and phpfm the things will be an little bit more faster.I`m still waiting their answer about this setup i need.
I even installed memcached on server level,and right now i have to implement into Joomla,as the file from joomla,is causing CPU load basically,and i need to serve the content from ram to be more instantly.
Now about the cache,we have static cache witch is for Guest Users and the hard part of cache is dynamic cache.
The cache conservative from joomla,acts only for Guest ,because when users logs on we are talking about dynamic cache,witch is not handled by joomla cache.
Now on my side i have an news portal,as the news are dynamic and constantly,basically the news come in ,and after that they can be cached,as the news remains the same to improve speed.
What does not remains the same,is for example Komments on the news,because that is the beauty of this dynamic world we are all living into.
If the user login in,your corectly,the cache is 0,the cache is for GUEST ONLY.
I need to solve the speed problem first of all on GUEST,as without Guest,they are no members and the story continues,this is only one point of the problem.
I need to improve speed for GUEST ,so i can get Members. - static cache
I need after to improve the speed for Members,to keep the members. - dynamic cache
I need to use memcached on server level,to serve everything from RAM,as from RAM is instantly,others methods are not good,and i have to see how i do this,so if i got one news and 30 comments,when an user login in ,to see the news and 30 comments,but when posting the 31 koomento,the system to cache only the 1 comment,and to be totaly 31,to not have to redo the whole cache again.
Basically this is how is working stackoverflow,facebook,etc i guess you know them.
I also put cloudflare,because cloudflare is just an way to leverage the things out across the servers,and because of about 2000 attacks -3000 attacks every 24 hours.
I did saw in server logs,alot of spammers that tryed to submit comments via your component Komento,and thanks to GOD ,you implemented the no-captcha from google,and they were stopped on right time!
With cloudflare is even more better in terms of security.
I will work my ass off every minute,every hour,every day ,to solve this problems with you guys and the rest of the global providers that i`m working with it,i think togheter we are stronger and better.
On my side,i did paused CLOUDFLARE for you MARK,we need to tweak up this jchoptmize in order things to work,i think some exclusion of javascript or css or both,will solve the problem out.
And the knowledge we get by doing this,will help you alot improve your products,and other`s that are using your products,because you will not give them only : FEATURES witch is very important,but SPEED too.
People nowdays are busy and lazy,they don`t want to wait 1 minute for your website to load,they don`t care if your using cache or not,they care first of all to load,then of course second problem is functionality.
I think we can solve them both is just an matter of time to figure it out....
