(UTF-8)

characters

that

need

to

appear

on

a

page
to
create

a

UTF-8

character

set

page.

The

UTF-8

character

set

is

an

international

standard

that
allows
Web

pages

to

display

non-ASCII

or

non-English

multibyte

characters.

It

can

represent

any
universal
character

in

the

Unicode

standard

and

is

backwards

compatible

with

ASCII.
Valid
entries

are

from

1

to

1,000,000.

(

%)
Threshold,
expressed

as

a

percent,
at
which
the
TTL
for

cached

objects

is

to

be

changed.
The
server
load

threshold

trigger

indicates

that

the

time-to-live

(TTL)

period

for

cached

objects

is
to
be
based

dynamically

on

server

l

oad.

With

this

method,

TTL

periods

increase

i

f

the

current
response
time

from

the

origin

sever

is

greater

than

the

average

response

time

and

decrease

if

the
current
response

time

from

the

origin

server

is

less

than

the

average

response

time

when

the
difference
in

response

times

exceeds

a

specified

threshold

amount.
Valid
entries

are

from

0

to

100

percent.
Server

(%)
Percentage
by

which
the
cache

TTL

is

to

be

increased

or

decreased

when

the
server

load

threshold
trigger
is

met.

This

option

specifies

the

percentage

by

which

the

cache

TTL

is

increased

or
decreased
in

response

to

a

change

in

server

load.

For

example,

if

this

value

is

set

to

20

and

the
current
TTL

for


a

response

is

300

seconds,

and

if

the

cur

rent

ser

ver

response

times

exceeds

the
trigger
threshold,

the

cache

TTL

for

the

response

is

raised

to

360

seconds.
Valid
entries

are

from

0

to

100

percent.
Delta
Optimization
Mode
Method
by
which
delta

optimization

is

to
be
implemented:


N/A—Indicates
that

a

delta

optimization
mode
is
not

configured.


Enable
The

All-User

Mode

For

Delta

Optimization—Indicates

that

the

ACE

is

to

generate
the
delta

against

a

single

base

file

that

is

shared

by

all

users

of

the

URL.

This

option

is

usable
in
most

cases

if

the

structure

of

a

page

is

common

across

all

users,

and

the

disk

space

overhead
is
minimal.


Enable
The

Per-User

Mode

For

Delta

Optimization—Indicates

that

the

ACE

is
to

generate
the
delta

against

a

base

file

that

is

created

specifically

for

that

user.

This

option

is

useful

when
page
contents,

including

layout

elements,

are

different

for

each

user,

and

delivers

the

highest
level
of

condensation.

However,

this

increases

disk

space

requirements

because

a

copy

of

the
base
page

that

is

delivered

to

each

user

is

cached.

This

option

is

useful

when

privacy

is
required
because

base

pages

are

not

shared

among

users.
