Re: [development] Object caching

I don't understand how you can have a contributed alternate bootstrap? If cache.inc would allow for avoiding avoid the Drupal bootstrap I'd be interested.

a) Drupal configuration is loaded from settings.php. If herein we find $conf['page_cache_fastpath'] = TRUE then the following happens: b) cache.inc is loaded c) page_cache_fastpath is called d) Drupal exits. That avoids pretty much all of Drupal. This was added to the cache.inc patch to let you serve the files as fast as possible. I added this with an eye on the file caching patch.
