Cache FileCache data in a FileCacheCollector

Created on 7 March 2015, about 10 years ago

Updated 30 May 2025, 4 days ago

Problem/Motivation

FilleCache (introduced in #2395143: YAML parsing is very slow, cache it with FileCache → ) allows caching of YAML files and module *.info.yml data in APCu and PhpStorage.

However for the *.info.yml files PHPStorage does not make a lot of sense, because all the code does is open the file, read the contents and run a regexp on it, which is not a complex operation.

Proposed resolution

- Introduce a simple FileCacheCollector class, which works similar to a cache collector, but with less complexity for locking, etc.
- This helps for the APCu case, too as with one read all *.info.yml files can be loaded.

Remaining tasks

- Discuss
- Create implementation

Thank you for creating this issue to improve Drupal.

We are working to decide if this task is still relevant to a currently supported version of Drupal. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or is no longer relevant. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

Thanks!
