Have always had problem with caching with my hosting account at GoDaddy especially when implemented with Wordpress which is what I use. Was thinking of checking it out myself, but never got around to it.

Great explanation on what are you doing to speed up the process. I didn't know that without mint caching the system will be greatly slow down due to dog-piling. A great way to solve the issue. However, is there other ways as well?

My concern with disqus is that they hold your data!. Data ownership is really a risk, with the current economic climate are you comfortable with the fact that your data is in tyhe hands of others?. We all need to ensure we manage our business risks during these difficult times.

This is new version. The main purpose of this version is to avoid the dog-pile effect.

Thanks, Glenn! Sharing code is a beautiful thing. In case you're interested, one other feature we are considering adding is a "delete" method that merely lowers the timeout on the cached value (instead of truly deleting it), thereby triggering the mint refresh. That way one could avoid the dogpile effect when manually invalidating.

I'm the author of the original mint cache and completely agree that this implementation is a very nice improvement. ( the original was written under duress! ) Kudos, guys!

We found the original hard to understand. This version is also decoupled from the cache backend that you use.

I would be interested to know why you use this (simple version) instead of the original MintCache.
