The Caches tool shows all second level caches instantiated within the Alfresco Content Repository. Only shared caches are included - transactional caches are not displayed as these are too short-lived / volatile.

Caches tool

Information present in this tool includes:

  • Cache: the name of the cache
  • Configured type: the type of the cache as configured via the classpath:alfresco/caches.properties and potentially overridden via alfresco-global.properties files (by modules or globally) - either local, fully-distributed or invalidating, but may also be empty for caches that have not been properly configured
  • Class: the actual implementation class for the cache instance
  • Size: the number of entries currently stored in the cache
  • Configured limit: the configured maximum number of entries that can be stored in the cache
  • # gets: the aggregated number of read accesses since the cache was instantiated
  • # hits: the aggregated number of read access hits
  • Hit %: the relative amount of read access hits
  • # misses: the aggregated number of read access misses
  • Miss %: the relative amount of read access misses
  • # evictions: the aggregated number of entries that have been evicted from the cache, either due to cache overflows (making room for other entries) or expiration (time to live / max idle time)
