Introduction

Cache, Site Performance, Site Map, Xmap Extensions

You might not know that using such popular extensions, as OSMap, XMap, MapX without caching can down your server completely. It is easy to make your site unavailable by doing a school DDOS (HTTP flood) attack from a mobile phone, sitting in front of TV. This is because sitemap generators require a lot of server resources to run heavy SQL queries for building the sitemap. I created this lightweight plugin to make the sitemap generators fast and secure, because there were not clean solutions for XMap based generators that would work without errors. This plugin is like the standart Joomla! Page Cache plugin, but only for the sitemap generators. It does not run SQL queries to get the cache, it does not run SQL queries to store the cache – it uses your system configuration.

L'utilisation d'extensions populaires comme OSMap, XMap, MapX sans mise en cache peut fortement abaisser les performances de votre serveur, et le rendre vulnérable aux attaques de type DDOS (attaque HTTP) pouvant être effectuée même à partir d'un téléphone portable assis devant son téléviseur. Cela s'explique par le fait que les générateurs de plan de site suscitent beaucoup de ressources serveur pour exécuter les lourdes requêtes SQL nécessaires à la création des plans de site.

Ce plugin léger a été écrit pour rendre les générateurs de plan de site rapides et sécurisés, il n'exécute aucune requête SQL pour créer et stocker le cache, palliant ainsi aux manque de solution propre aux systèmes basé sur XMap. Ce plugin fonctionne comme le plugin cache standard de Joomla, mais s'appliquant uniquement aux générateurs de plan de site, il utilise également les paramètres de la configuration système.

Sie wissen vielleicht nicht, dass mit so populären Erweiterungen wie OSMap, XMap, MapX ohne Caching Ihr Server komplett lahmgelegt werden kann. Es ist einfach, Ihre Website unerreichbar zu machen, indem Sie einen Schul-DDOS-Angriff (HTTP-Flut) von einem Mobiltelefon aus durchführen. Das liegt daran, dass Sitemap-Generatoren eine Menge Serverressourcen benötigen, da umfangreiche SQL-Abfragen zum Erstellen der Sitemap notwendig sind.Ich habe dieses einfache Plugin geschrieben, um die Sitemap-Generatoren schnell und sicher zu machen, weil es keine sauberen Lösungen für XMap basierte Generatoren gab, die ohne Fehler arbeiten würden. Dieses Plugin ist wie das Standard Joomla! Page Cache Plugin, aber nur für Sitemap-Generatoren. Es führt keine SQL-Abfragen aus, um den Cache zu erhalten, es führt keine SQL-Abfragen aus, um den Cache zu speichern - es verwendet Ihre Systemkonfiguration.

Owner's reply: Dear user!

I suppose, you take for granted high quality work. You probably used my free plugin for a long time. Thank you for choosing my product. As you can see, it's free. However, I stopped support free version. You can still use this high quality product absolutelly free, but I decided to make further version paid, sorry. Next version was optimized to be much faster and it is also Joomla! 4 ready. I apologise for not providing you my work free. It is common for Joomla! developers to make good free things paid. For example, JCE editor has free and paid version. Do not be angry about this. As a said, my plugin is also free. But it also has a paid version, that is brilliant!

Yours sincerely,
Philip Sorokin.
