SharePoint Portal Server 2003 Performance Tip: Disable Cache ISAPI extensions

Unless you run a lot of custom web applications on your SharePoint Portal there should not be any need for caching ISAPI extensions as SharePoint pages are handled by its own SharePoint services ISAPI filter (stsfltr.dll).

Enabling the cache ISAPI extensions would slow down SharePoint as this causes many unnecessary application extensions to be loaded into memory for all IIS web requests.

Just wanted to point out that caching can help sharepoint applications in certain situations.

As SharePoint Server gains popularity and more and more server farm configurations are deployed for a large number
of concurrent users, application performance can suffer if the database bottleneck is not properly addressed.

NCache can help remedy the situation by caching objects and sessions in memory in a highly synchronized manner across multiple servers in a web farm thereby reducing expensive database trips and rendering the SharePoint application highly scalable and lightening fast.
