Chapter 7 Web cache configuration
You need to adjust the maximum size of a Web entry and then look at two
statistics to help determine the new value:
•
To determine whether you need to adjust the maximum size of a Web entry,
look at the statistic for "Data exceeded max size" in the "Why requests are not
served from the cache" area. If this number is high (over 10%), you should
probably increase the maximum entry size.
•
In the "Cache entries" area, look at the statistics for the "Average entry size."
This statistic displays the average size of each entry stored in the cache. If the
average entry size is small, you can set the maximum size entry lower. If it is
large, set it higher.
To review the statistics:
1
On the Home page, click Web Cache.
