It looks like the ResourceLoader always acts as if CACHE_ANYTHING is set for reading, which seems to be intentional, and for writing, which perhaps is not.

From includes/resourceloader/ResourceLoader.php (similar code is also in

includes/resourceloader/ResourceLoaderLanguageDataModule.php):

// Try for cache hit // Use CACHE_ANYTHING since filtering is very slow compared to DB queries $key = wfMemcKey( 'resourceloader', 'filter', $filter, self::$filterCacheVersion, md5( $data ) ); $cache = wfGetCache( CACHE_ANYTHING ); $cacheEntry = $cache->get( $key ); [...] // Save filtered text to Memcached $cache->set( $key, $result );

Hi,

We are using $wgVersion = '1.20.2';

But we find that the objectcache continues to grow even though we have used the setting suggested in the FAQ to completely disable caching and also restarted the server.

grep -i cache LocalSettings.php

$wgEnableParserCache = false;

$wgMainCacheType = CACHE_NONE;

$wgMemCachedServers = array();

$wgMessageCacheType = CACHE_NONE;

$wgParserCacheType = CACHE_NONE;

$wgCachePages = false;

# sure that cached pages are cleared.

$wgCacheEpoch = max( $wgCacheEpoch, $configdate );

Comparing the tables between 06-23 and 06-24

mysql> select count(*) from wiki24.objectcache;

+----------+

| count(*) |

+----------+

| 91184 |

+----------+

1 row in set (3.55 sec)

mysql> select count(*) from wiki23.objectcache;

+----------+

| count(*) |

+----------+

| 90866 |

+----------+

1 row in set (1.46 sec)

What do you suggest?
