Search Cache

Hi Guys,

just noticed the following 'issue' which I do not understand 100%:
The cache expiry for the search is set to 30minutes - which is the default date.

What makes me wonders:
The table 'search_cache' still holds entries which are far more older.
I have done a fresh install in the 09.Februrary and the table still holds entries from that date.

I thought that after the expiry date this will be cleaned up.

I am a little bit afraid that when no clean up of the table is done, this table will grow into a data monster.

Would be great if you can clear things.

Cheers
Ralf

  • Search entries are removed if the same search is done again and they have expired. (Of course they will be replaced with the new search results then.)

    Whenever you do a "refresh database" the search cache will also be cleared.

    But, how much storage was infact taken up by those old queries? Was it really enough to be concerned with?
  • Hi Sbillard,

    it was more a question about how it works than a problem.
    Thanks for your explanation it clears things for me.

    Cheers
