Tip #36: Change the banner cache value when testing
Today’s tip comes courtesy of Seagull Systems’ Demian Turner, who quite rightly points out:
“During testing you can set the cache timeout value to some low value like 1 second so that effectively the cache doesn’t get used.”
If you’re debugging banner delivery, or you want to test the results of changing settings like banner capping or companion positioning, then reducing the banner cache value can be a great way of seeing your changes “go live” much faster.
Of course, if you’re doing this on a production system, you may affect delivery performance, so make sure you keep an eye on your system performance monitoring tool!

Great suggestion. So where is that setting?
thx,

You can find the banner cache value setting under Configuration > Global Settings > Banner Delivery Settings > Banner Delivery Cache Settings. Don’t forget you will need to be acting as the Administrator account to be able to access the Configuration menu!
