Hi, Is there any way to make cachefilesd *NOT* re-validate it's cache of a file upon access for a certain period of time? We'd like to be able to give a "timeout", say 5 minutes, where cachefilesd will not go to the backend server to make sure it's cache is up to date - not even to hit it for mtime/etc info. After that configured time has expired, cachefilesd would then re-validate the mtime/etc and pull in a new file if the data has changed. The reason for asking this is that the vast majority of our data does not change often, and we can significantly reduce IO and increase performance if we limit the number of times metadata is validated across the network. Is this something that is possible? Thanks, Darren. -- Darren Austin - Systems Administrator, Widgit Software. Tel: +44 (0)1926 333680.
