How to Calculate Cache Ratio


Detailed measurements of your website statistics can tell you a lot about the people who are visiting your site. The cache ratio, for example, can tell you the percentage of attempted accesses to your site that result in cache hits. Cache hits are instances in which a user's web browser uses the copy of the assets stored locally in its cache rather than retrieving the files from your web server. A higher cache ratio is indicative of a higher number of users


Instructions

1 Locate the total number of attempted accesses to your website for the time period you are measuring in your website statistics.

2 Locate the number of cache hits to your website for the time period you are measuring in your website statistics.

3 Divide the number of cache hits by the number of attempted accesses to determine your cache ratio.
