[EP-tech] Re: Browse pages

[John Salter]

Ian,
By default, the browse views (top page, and menu/list pages) are regenerated if they are older than 1 day:
https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/3.3/perl_lib/EPrints/Update/Views.pm#L230
and 
https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/3.3/perl_lib/EPrints/Update/Views.pm#L248-L249

It looks like you can control this using the config (see the second link).

If you set up a cron job to regenerate the page twice a day (so it's never older that a day), does that help things?

Cheers,
John

We're looking at the same stuff here.
(our problem is the 10 minutes to re-render a page means the server 
basically gets overloaded by google crawling the pages)

PS - what version of EPrints are you using?
