You are consulting with a customer who has an Internet-facing SharePoint 2010 site. The SharePoint farm runs
across multiple servers. The customer needs to improve the user experience on the site by improving Web page
load times. The site customization requires extensive resources, including large image files, custom CSS, and
JavaScript files. You need to suggest a way to help improve the SharePoint site performance that does not
require a hardware upgrade.
What should you recommend that the customer do?
A.
Configure the query servers in the farm as additional Web servers and verify that the object cache is enabled on all Internet-facing Web sites.
B.
Reconfigure the Web servers to increase the size of their page files.
C.
Enable disk-based caching on the Web servers for the Internet-facing Web site.
D.
Create an additional Microsoft SQL Server database to store the configuration database that stores the data for the site.
SharePoint Server 2010 provides a disk-based cache that stores files that are used by Web pages to help them load quickly in the browser, and reduces the load on the database server when it uses those files. These files are known as binary large objects (BLOBs), and the cache is known as the BLOB cache. The BLOB cache is stored directly on the hard disk drive of a front-end Web server computer. The first time that a Web page is called, these files are copied from the database to the cache on the server hard disk drive, and all subsequent requests for those files are then served from the hard disk drive cache of the server. By default, the BLOB cache is off and must be enabled to use the functionality it provides. When you enable the BLOB cache on your front-end Web server, you reduce the load on the SharePoint Server 2010 database server created by read requests from Web browsers.
