You can easily create a broken site using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_file_cache.html">mod_file_cache</a></code>, so read this document carefully. </div> <p><em>Caching</em> frequently requested files that change very infrequently is a technique for reducing server load. <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_file_cache.html">mod_file_cache</a></code> provides two techniques for caching frequently requested <em>static</em> files. Through configuration directives, you can direct <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_file_cache.html">mod_file_cache</a></code> to either open then <code>mmap()</code> a file, or to pre-open a file and save the file's open <em>file handle</em>. Both techniques reduce server load when processing requests for these files by doing part of the work (specifically, the file I/O) for serving the file when the server is started rather than during each request.</p> <p>Notice: You cannot use this for speeding up CGI programs or other files which are served by special content handlers. It can only be used for regular files which are usually served by the Apache core content handler.</p> <p>This module is an extension of and borrows heavily from the <code>mod_mmap_static</code> module in Apache 1.3.</p></div><div id="quickview"><h3 class="directives">Directives</h3><ul id="toc"><li><img alt="" src="../images/down.gif" /> <a href="#cachefile">CacheFile</a></li><li><img alt="" src="../images/down.gif" /> <a href="#mmapfile">MMapFile</a></li></ul><h3>Topics</h3><ul id="topics"><li><img alt="" src="../images/down.gif" /> <a href="#using">Using mod_file_cache</a></li></ul></div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div><div class="section"><h2><a name="using" id="using">Using mod_file_cache</a></h2> <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_file_cache.html">mod_file_cache</a></code> caches a list of statically configured files via <code class="directive"><a href="#mmapfile">MMapFile</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="#cachefile">CacheFile</a></code> directives in the main server configuration.</p> <p>Not all platforms support both directives. For example, Apache on Windows does not currently support the <code class="directive"><a href="#mmapstatic">MMapStatic</a></code> directive, while other platforms, like AIX, support both. You will receive an error message in the server error log if you attempt to use an unsupported directive. If given an unsupported directive, the server will start but the file will not be cached. On platforms that support both directives, you should experiment with both to see which works best for you.</p> <h3>MMapFile Directive</h3> <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="#mmapfile">MMapFile</a></code> directive of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_file_cache.html">mod_file_cache</a></code> maps a list of statically configured files into memory through the system call <code>mmap()</code>. This system call is available on most modern Unix derivates, but not on all. There are sometimes system-specific limits on the size and number of files that can be <code>mmap()</code>ed, experimentation is probably the easiest way to find out.</p> <p>This <code>mmap()</code>ing is done once at server start or restart, only. So whenever one of the mapped files changes on the filesystem you <em>have</em> to restart the server (see the <a href="../stopping.html">Stopping and Restarting</a> documentation). To reiterate that point: if the files are modified <em>in place</em> without restarting the server you may end up serving requests that are completely bogus. You should update files by unlinking the old copy and putting a new copy in place. Most tools such as <code>rdist</code> and <code>mv</code> do this. The reason why this modules doesn't take care of changes to the files is that this check would need an extra <code>stat()</code> every time which is a waste and against the intent of I/O reduction.</p> <h3>CacheFile Directive</h3> <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="#cachefile">CacheFile</a></code> directive of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_file_cache.html">mod_file_cache</a></code> opens an active <em>handle</em> or <em>file descriptor</em> to the file (or files) listed in the configuration directive and places these open file handles in the cache. When the file is requested, the server retrieves the handle from the cache and passes it to the <code>sendfile()</code> (or <code>TransmitFile()</code> on Windows), socket API.</p> <p>This file handle caching is done once at server start or restart, only. So whenever one of the cached files changes on the filesystem you <em>have</em> to restart the server (see the <a href="../stopping.html">Stopping and Restarting</a> documentation).

Most tools such as <code>rdist</code> and <code>mv</code> do this.</p> <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3> <p>Don't bother asking for a directive which recursively caches all the files in a directory.

See the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#include">Include</a></code> directive, and consider this command:</p> <div class="example"><p><code> find /www/htdocs -type f -print \<br /> | sed -e 's/.*/mmapfile &/' > /www/conf/mmap.conf </code></p></div> </div></div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div><div class="directive-section"><h2><a name="CacheFile" id="CacheFile">CacheFile</a> <a name="cachefile" id="cachefile">Directive</a></h2><table class="directive"><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Description">Description:</a></th><td>Cache a list of file handles at startup time</td></tr><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Syntax">Syntax:</a></th><td><code>CacheFile <var>file-path</var> [<var>file-path</var>] ...</code></td></tr><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Context">Context:</a></th><td>server config</td></tr><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Status">Status:</a></th><td>Experimental</td></tr><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Module">Module:</a></th><td>mod_file_cache</td></tr></table> <p>The <code class="directive">CacheFile</code> directive opens handles to one or more files (given as whitespace separated arguments) and places these handles into the cache at server startup time.
