The MySQL Disk Cache uses all of the JDBC Disk Cache properties. It adds a few of its own. The following properties only apply to the MySQL Disk Cache plugin.
| Property | Description | Required | Default Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| optimizationSchedule | For now this is a simple comma delimited list of HH:MM:SS times to optimize the table. If none is supplied, then no optimizations will be performed. In the future we can add a cron like scheduling system. This was created to meet a pressing need to optimize fragmented MyISAM tables. When the table becomes fragmented, it starts to take a long time to run the shrinker that deletes expired elements. Setting the value to "03:01,15:00" will cause the optimizer to run at 3 am and at 3 pm. | N | null |
| balkDuringOptimization | If this is true, then when JCS is optimizing the table it will return null from get requests and do nothing for put requests. If you are using the remote cache and have a failover server configured in a remote cache cluster, and you allow clustered gets, the primary server will act as a proxy to the failover. This way, optimization should have no impact for clients of the remote cache. | N | true |
| Property | Description | Required | Default Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| EventQueueType | This should be either SINGLE or POOLED. By default the single style pool is used. The single style pool uses a single thread per event queue. That thread is killed whenever the queue is inactive for 30 seconds. Since the disk cache uses an event queue for every region, if you have many regions and they are all active, you will be using many threads. To limit the number of threads, you can configure the disk cache to use the pooled event queue. Using more threads than regions will not add any benefit for the indexed disk cache, since only one thread can read or write at a time for a single region. | N | SINGLE |
| EventQueuePoolName | This is the name of the pool to use. It is required if you choose the POOLED event queue type, otherwise it is ignored. | Y | n/a |
