[TYPO3-english] tx_comments and caching of tt_news

[Frank Sonck]

Hello,

I am facing a bit of a dilemma. Maybe someone has a good suggestion or 
experience.

Untill now I am using ve_guestbook for comments on tt_news articles. But 
this extension (the comments form) deactivates page caching. Since the 
number of articles is getting bigger this is becoming a website 
performance killer.

So maybe it would be better to use tx_comments. This extension doesn't 
stop pages from being cached.
But the manual says:

Automatically clear cache for any page(s) when comment is added

Now if I have 1000 articles, all of them already visited at least one 
time and thus already cached (this is 1000 cached views of my article 
page), adding a new comment for 1 article would mean that I 'lose' these 
   1000 cached views? This would seem like wasted work for the server 
and another performance killer?

Does anyone have an answer for this?

Thanks,

Frank
