I set up this calendar where people can subscribe with ical. They
subscribe to a php file(instead of ics) and it dynamically loads the
calendar from the database. something like this has to be done because
each user chooses which kind of events they want to appear in ical.
I'm about to have more users and more types of events. It seems like
it would majorly bog down my server to have lots of people's icals
updating every 5 minutes.
lets say there are 4000 users and 4000 types of events. One user
might only want 200 of those event types to show up in his calendar
while another user might only be interested in one of those types of
events.
solutions...
idea 1 = each user gets their own static ics file. as the calendar is
updated, the update page changes every user's file who has requested
the recently added event type.
idea 2 = do the same thing, but with crons
someone's gotta know a good way to do this. Do you guys have any ideas?
