MaxFileCacheContentSize
Syntax
MaxFileCacheContentSize <num_kilobytes>
where [num_kilobytes] specifies the number of kilobytes (KB), where 1 KB equals 1024
bytes.
Description
Use the MaxFileCacheContentSize directive to specify the maximum file content length
allowed in a file cache entry. When this directive is present in a configuration file, files
with a content length less than or equal to [num_kilobytes] are cached entirely in the
server's file cache. For files with a content length greater than [num_kilobytes], only file
opens and file stats are cached. The actual file content is accessed directly from disk.
MaxFileCacheContentSize accepts a value from 0 (zero) to 50KB (50 x 1024 bytes).
Specifying a value of 0 (zero) in the MaxFileCacheContentSize directive disables file
content caching.
Default
When no MaxFileCacheContentSize directive is present, the server assumes a value
of 10 (10KB).
Example
MaxFileCacheContentSize 30
Both MaxFileCacheEntries and MaxFileCacheContentSize determine the maximum file
cache size. For example, if MaxFileCacheEntries is set to 3000 and
MaxFileCacheContentSize is set to 30, then the maximum capacity for the file cache is
90MB. HP recommends a survey of all static files residing on the web site as well as
the physical memory configuration. Performance may be hindered if the iTP Secure
WebServer consumes too much physical memory and causes a high number of page
faults. A tuning process may be required to determine optimal settings for these
directives.
