Sitecore performance: Caching.DisableCacheSizeLimits set to "false" -


so after following suggestions on this blog post noticed significant (~300%) improvement in loading times of items in content editor.

i considering publishing our testing server few days , see how behaves, there counter-indications doing on production? cache stop growing when memory full, or lead server instability?

additionally, notice similar increase in performance if enforce cache limit set them fill them entire ram of server?

according sitecore scaling guide documentation:

<setting name="caching.disablecachesizelimits" value="true" />

sitecore recommends cache size limits disabled on 64-bit systems ample memory

see http://sdn.sitecore.net/upload/sitecore7/70/cms_tuning_guide_sc70-72-a4.pdf chapter 4.5.4.

i've tested in few projects , there 1 issue - rebuilding solr indexes took longer in sitecore 7.2 rev 140526 (20 minutes vs 6 hours). haven't tested lucene indexes.

it has been fixed in sitecore 7.2 rev. 141226 (7.2 update-3). except haven't experienced issues , it's recommended sitecore enable settings think safe (assuming you're running on 64-bit server).

if site based on earlier rev of sitecore 7.2 rev. 141226, may want confirm sitecore support there no more issues related setting.
