Version 1.5 of Query Cache for Zen Cart has been released. New version reduces query count by 80% (previous version reduced query count by ‘only’ 50%). Here’s list of changes:
- 970 queries down to 198 queries ( v1.0 executed about 450 queries )
- some performance improvements to code
- includes/functions/functions_categories.php has been rewritten to use cache and prefetch data. It reduces query count by about 100 queries (it depends on number of categories in Your store)
- basic queries for product from products table (for example “select products_name, manufacturers_id from products where products_id = ‘7′“) can now be rewritten to “select * from products where products_id = ‘7′“. It saves about 100 queries on default Zen Cart demo store.
