Configure the Form Cache

Forms can be cached to improve performance and reduce unnecessary network traffic. You can control the settings of form cache with the following parameters:

EnableFormCache

Controls the forms template cache. Setting this parameter to yes, improves the performance of forms authentication. To disable the cache, set this parameter to no.

Default: Yes

FormCacheTimeout

Specifies the number of seconds that an object may reside in cache before being considered invalid. When the timeout interval expires, the date and time of the form template file is compared against the time that the cache object was created. If the object in cache is stored more recently than the file on the system's disk, the timeout is reset for another interval; otherwise, the object is removed from cache.

Default: 600

To configure the forms cache

1. Set the value of the EnableFormCache parameter to yes.
2. If you want to change the timeout interval for the form cache, set the value of the FormCacheTimeout value to the number of seconds you want.

   The form cache is configured.
