cache is 90MB. HP recommends a survey of all static files residing on the Web site in
addition to the physical memory configuration. Performance might be hindered if the
iTP Secure WebServer consumes too much physical memory and causes a high
number of page faults. A tuning process might be required to determine optimal
settings for these directives.
MaxFileCacheEntries
Syntax
MaxFileCacheEntries <num_entries>
Description
Use the MaxFileCacheEntries directive to specify the maximum number of entries
allowed in the file cache where the server stores file opens, file stats, and actual file
contents.
If you specify a larger number of entries, more memory might be consumed by the file
cache; if you specify a smaller number, the server must access files directly from disk
more frequently. Therefore, HP recommends a survey of the Web site in addition to the
physical memory configuration on the processor.
Only one MaxFileCacheEntries directive is allowed in the configuration file.
MaxFileCacheEntries accepts a value from 256 to 6000.
To disable file opens caching, the CacheTime directive must be set to 0.
Default
When no MaxFileCacheEntries directive is present, the server allows 2000 entries in
the file cache.
Example
MaxFileCacheEntries 5000
MaxRequestBody
Syntax
MaxRequestBody integer-value
