Serving static content faster with Fast Response Cache Accelerator

The fast response cache accelerator (FRCA) can improve the performance of the IBM HTTP Server when serving static content, such as text and image files. Support for FRCA is on AIX and Windows systems only.

About this task

When FRCA is enabled, the default configuration setting allows all static files to be cached. The cache automatically loads during server operation so that individual files do not need to be listed. Use the AfpaCache directive to turn caching on or off for specific directories.

FRCA will remove files from the cache when they change to avoid serving stale content.
