Cache data are stored in files. The file name in a cache is a result of applying the MD5 function to the <link id="uwsgi_cache_key">cache key</link>. The <literal>levels</literal> parameter defines hierarchy levels of a cache: from 1 to 3, each level accepts values 1 or 2. For example, in the following configuration <example> uwsgi_cache_path /data/nginx/cache levels=1:2 keys_zone=one:10m; </example> file names in a cache will look like this: <example> /data/nginx/cache/<emphasis>c</emphasis>/<emphasis>29</emphasis>/b7f54b2df7773722d382f4809d650<emphasis>29c</emphasis> </example> </para> <para> A cached response is first written to a temporary file, and then the file is renamed. Starting from version 0.8.9, temporary files and the cache can be put on different file systems. However, be aware that in this case a file is copied across two file systems instead of the cheap renaming operation. It is thus recommended that for any given location both cache and a directory holding temporary files are put on the same file system. A directory for temporary files is set based on the <literal>use_temp_path</literal> parameter (1.7.10). If this parameter is omitted or set to the value <literal>on</literal>, the directory set by the <link id="uwsgi_temp_path"/> directive for the given location will be used. If the value is set to <literal>off</literal>, temporary files will be put directly in the cache directory. </para> <para> In addition, all active keys and information about data are stored in a shared memory zone, whose <value>name</value> and <value>size</value> are configured by the <literal>keys_zone</literal> parameter. One megabyte zone can store about 8 thousand keys. <note> As part of <commercial_version>commercial subscription</commercial_version>, the shared memory zone also stores extended cache <link doc="ngx_http_api_module.xml" id="http_caches_">information</link>, thus, it is required to specify a larger zone size for the same number of keys. For example, one megabyte zone can store about 4 thousand keys. </note> </para> <para> Cached data that are not accessed during the time specified by the <literal>inactive</literal> parameter get removed from the cache regardless of their freshness. By default, <literal>inactive</literal> is set to 10 minutes. </para> <para> The special “cache manager” process monitors the maximum cache size set by the <literal>max_size</literal> parameter. When this size is exceeded, it removes the least recently used data. The data is removed in iterations configured by <literal>manager_files</literal>, <literal>manager_threshold</literal>, and <literal>manager_sleep</literal> parameters (1.11.5). During one iteration no more than <literal>manager_files</literal> items are deleted (by default, 100). The duration of one iteration is limited by the <literal>manager_threshold</literal> parameter (by default, 200 milliseconds). Between iterations, a pause configured by the <literal>manager_sleep</literal> parameter (by default, 50 milliseconds) is made. </para> <para> A minute after the start the special “cache loader” process is activated. It loads information about previously cached data stored on file system into a cache zone. The loading is also done in iterations. During one iteration no more than <literal>loader_files</literal> items are loaded (by default, 100). Besides, the duration of one iteration is limited by the <literal>loader_threshold</literal> parameter (by default, 200 milliseconds). Between iterations, a pause configured by the <literal>loader_sleep</literal> parameter (by default, 50 milliseconds) is made. </para> <para> Additionally, the following parameters are available as part of our <commercial_version>commercial subscription</commercial_version>: </para> <para> <list type="tag"> <tag-name id="purger"> <literal>purger</literal>=<literal>on</literal>|<literal>off</literal> </tag-name> <tag-desc> Instructs whether cache entries that match a <link id="uwsgi_cache_purge">wildcard key</link> will be removed from the disk by the cache purger (1.7.12).
