MageHost_BlockCache
Performance improvement by caching big blocks in Magento.
We are sorry but we can only offer customer support for this extension to MagentoHosting.pro customers. To others it is provided "as-is" for free.
This extension is meant to speed up shops which are not running on Varnish or any other full page cache. It works by putting large blocks in the Magento block cache, for example the content area of catergory pages. The block cache can be stored on disk or in Redis.
Installation
Config Settings:
System > Configuration > ADVANCED > MageHost BlockCache
