While Moodle has the potential to scale to tens of thousands of simultaneous users, good performance management is required to guarantee adequate scalability.
After providing an overview of the subject, we will cover the most relevant topics related to Moodle’s performance and optimization:
- Optimizing Moodle feature performance: We will look at performance issues in Moodle functions and Moodle activities. Optimizing their performance is often a trade-off between improved speed and potentially reduced functionality, which is discussed.
- Moodle Universal Cache (MUC): We cover the different elements of the powerful MUC, namely cache types, cache stores, and cache definitions. We will then run you through some MUC performance testing and various caching options. ...
