Hi,
on my site I have some custom blocks, which load much data, for example statistics. To calculate the statistics I have to do complex database queries and php cycles on all data extracted. I would like to know if there is a standard way in boonex to cache the data of a block (example saving it to html) and deciding when the block should be recalculated (example every 10 seconds).
This will save a lot of calculations. The best would be to have it as standard option on each "block".
Now while I was writing this post I checked the best place to have this option, and ... I found in sys_page_compose there is actually a "cache" column ! Also there is a cache box in the page composer UI!
Is that option doing what I want by caching also the data or only the template? In other words will that avoid calling getBlockCode_<my function>() until the cache value is passed?
Please note that a block can contain data specific to one user, so it should be cached "per user" and not be identical for all users.
Thanks.
