Demian,

Thank you, I appreciate your input. See below.

Yep, good start with any of those.

The initial decisions taken while building a project might be wrong. Due to continues backward compatibility, you can not change them even you wish. Some projects die and same people start a new one, rethinking mistakes made.

The question is about the practical things you do daily. You might laugh of your first project, you continue to move forward and got respect as it is now. Imagine you continue to fix your first program up to now, you will probably write is somewhat differently. Same applies to frameworks, pursue effectiveness for more: users served, application hosted, etc. Some, just can not.

The frameworks are not written in one day, they have historical path with many hands on it. This change it, not always right way.

That glue is usability case: recommendation how to use it with one or the other.

For you, personally, let me point this again. N.P.

Here is how: use content caching with cache dependency. Read more:

Thanks.
