Why use a cache on a database driven site?

Posted by & filed under Php, Programming, Uncategorized, Website Design.

Because you can get a message like this from your hosting provider when a site starts getting real traffic.

Currently your site is using too many resources on our server (MySQL queries are taking up 20%+ of CPU usage on the server). Please look into the cause of this, particularly recent code changes and updates.

Thanks!

P.S. Please be aware that if your site continues to overuse server resources we may be forced to suspend your account.
