Windows server: memcache

Hello all,

Where would I download memcache and how do you install it? I am running Windows 2003 server R2, Moodle 1.9.5, Php 5.2.6, Apache 2.2.10, MYSql 5.0.51A. Thanks for your help.

Here's one article on how to do it:

I haven't used it myself though... I did a bit of research on Memcache a while ago and found things like: Performance gain with Memcached on Windows?

http://code.jellycan.com/memcached/ and http://code.google.com/p/memcached/wiki/Clients have links to Memcached binaries for Windows.

But I ended up installing a PHP accelerator (eAccelerator) on the web server instead. I got a really nice performance boost with that. I wasn't able to really get Memcached working properly as a proxy for database queries - not enough to justify rolling it out onto my Moodle production box...

Thanks for the information. We just doubled the memory and the processors on the database server and have seen some improvement in performance. We may need to install an accelerator in order to further improve performance for the exams. I feel like I'm putting a puzzle together.
