Beaker caching performance guideline

Question

I was implemented beaker with a cherrypy application, but after some requests, the beaker response time increases about 10-14 seconds.

i think after including 500 to 1000 items in cache, beaker goes down.

all cached types are simple(str,int,list,tuple,...)

Answer 1

I Found the problem, The beaker have some performance problems with file type back-end. simply i changed the

'cache.type' : 'file'

to:

'cache.type' : 'dbm'

and everything is so good!!!

when type is file beaker uses python pure pickle library to serialize the object. and pickle does not good for large objects.
