Talk:Moodle 2.6 release notes/Performance tests

From MoodleDocs

David, thanks for clarifying the server set-up. The problem is that you test scenario misses an important thing. If everything is on one server, then any change DB query -> Cache fetch is almost certainly a win, because it is just a simple read from local disc. However, large Moodle sites have moodledata on a shared file system, and accessing it involves a networks round-trip. Therefore Moving stuff into a cache can hurt. For Moodle 2.7, please can you add a multi-server test set-up, in addition to the current test. Thanks.--Tim Hunt (talk) 16:01, 13 November 2013 (WST)
