<p>The speed with which a Web server responds to
requests from a client depends a lot on the size
of the Web site, particularly the number
of pages and the other files it contains. You can improve a Web site's response time by
tuning it. When you tune a Web site, Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions 2002 sets aside a certain amount
of disk
space as a <a href="wsgGloss.htm#cache" class="glossterm"> cache</a> for the Web site, based on the number of Web pages. For example, you can
tune a Web site for less than 100 pages or for more than 1,000, or use the
custom setting and fill in your own cache sizes. You can
use the default cache settings or specify settings for the <a href="wsgGloss.htm#inmemorydocumentcache" class="glossterm"> in-memory document
cache</a>,
the <a href="wsgGloss.htm#includefilecache" class="glossterm"> include file
cache</a>, the <a href="wsgGloss.htm#imagefilecache" class="glossterm"> image file
cache</a>, the <a href="wsgGloss.htm#fulltextsearchindex" class="glossterm">full-text
search index</a> size,
and the maximum cached document size.</p>
<p>For Microsoft <a href="wsgGloss.htm#FrontPageServerExtensions" class="glossterm">
FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions</a>, you use the <a href="wsgGloss.htm#MicrosoftManagementConsole" class="glossterm"> Microsoft Management Console</a> (MMC) to adjust
performance tuning. With FrontPage Server Extensions 2002, you use the <b>Change Configuration Settings</b>
page in the <b>Server
Administration</b>
pages.</p>
