Performance
All redirects are stored in the database and will be automatically "published" to a file which the internal redirect mechanism uses to determine if a certain request needs to be redirected. This is way faster than querying a database.
This plugin is designed to be fast and should have no negative effect on the performance of your website.
To gain maximum performance with this plugin:
- Enable redirect caching using a "in-memory" caching method (see Caching).
- Maintain your redirects frequently to keep the number of redirects as low as possible.
- Try to use placeholders to keep your number of redirect low (less redirects is better performance).
Caching
If your website has a lot of redirects it is recommended to enable redirect caching. You can enable redirect caching in the settings panel of this plugin.
Only cache drivers which support tagged cache are supported. So driver file
and database
are not supported. For this plugin database and file caching do not increase performance, but can actually have a negative influence on performance. So it is recommended to use an in-memory caching solution like memcached
or redis
.
How caching works
If caching is enabled (and supported) every request which is handled by this plugin will be cached. It will be stored with tag Vdlp.Redirect
.
When you modify a redirect all redirect cache will be invalidated automatically. It is also possible to manually clear the cache using the 'Clear cache' button in the Backend.
Placeholders
This plugin makes advantage of the symfony/routing
package. So if you need more info on how to make placeholder requirements for your redirection URLs, please go to: https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/routing/introduction.html#usage
