* Almost Time To Start The Eggs!
Posted on August 8th, 2008 by Phil. Filed under Boost, Drupal, Television, caching.
Hours before they were launched into the space, and few days before two of them became the first men to walk on the moon, the crew of Apollo 11 sat down for a hearty breakfast of eggs, toast, coffee and - of course - Tang!
Well we here at WGBH Online are getting ready for our own launch in just a few days. We’re not quite ready for the pre-launch breakfast, but we should probably go shopping for all the ingredients real soon.
A whole bunch of people are working feverishly right now to dot all the i’s and cross all the t’s on our new TV Programs and Schedules module. Everything is going smoothly - knock on wood - and I think we may pull this off as planned. Suffice it to say, lots of coffee is being consumed.
The biggest development of late is that Pete has worked wonders to get the Boost module working for us on Drupal 6. Initial benchmarking tests indicate that Boost has increased our throughput by about ten-fold over the traditional Drupal database caching.
Boy, we love that.
Anyhow, keep your eyes peeled here for the big launch announcement - and get ready to start the eggs!
