I'm struggling with a rather large site for zen-cart with about 70K-120K records. It runs so-so on my laptop and horrible on the VPS web host. The test site is caravantest.com and the store is available at http://www.caravantest.com/partsDB/
I've got the database cache set to file, but I don't see any files written to the directory. Sessions are written to the db. Can someone explain the general workings of the cache? Does a query have to run X times before it hits the cache? I'm assuming that I should be using the file cache over db...right?
Any comments on speeding things up? What server hardware would you believe to be sufficient to handle this site. It's pretty simple other than the item count, without manufactures, item counts, pictures, and other things to slow it down.
Any hosts out there that want to prove that it can run fast!
Thanks,
