Performance and Scalability

TL;DR:

Adds the ability to issue purge requests for specific URL paths using an admin form for defined roles.

Graceful Menu Cache flags menu caches as stale instead of clearing them.
At cron run, it generates new caches and then replaces the old caches.
Doing so, users only have to wait for the cache to build, the first time it gets loaded.
This gives a major performance boost to Drupal installations with a lot of menu items.

The disadvantage is that it takes longer for anonymous users to see menu changes. It takes as long as the cron frequency.

INTRODUCTION

Codit: Crons allows a developer to add multiple jobs (functions with spoecific
actions) to the cron with each cron job having its own timing.

Varnish Tags is a module that adds HTTP Headers to Drupal responses that tell Varnish which entities were loaded to render any given page. This meta data can then be used to do entity based banning in Varnish and ban all pages that used a given entity.

# FCGen - Fake Content Generation

The goal of this module is to provide a basis for generating real-seeming content in a manner which is consistent and customizable.

## Intended Usage

This module is not designed to be used on its own. It extends migrate so that you as the end user can create migrations which are based off of fake sources,
so that you can create test content that accurately represents your use cases.

The reason behind this is so that a site can be tested with large amounts of real content, for performance and load testing.

This module provides a better replacement for Hierarchical Select.

This module significantly reduces amount of cache requests and slightly improves overall site performance.

This module implements a new Views cache plug-in that allows the output of single rows to be cached independently.

Sitematcher is not literally a Drupal module, but a handy API tool for Drupal multisite environments. It aims to reduce non-versioned and also copy & paste overhead at bootstrap level by replacing file- and folder-based configuration with configuration arrays. This reduces the common side effects of repeated code,
and also allows for versioning most of your bootstrap-level configuration files without revealing secrets (like database configuration).
