Cache ONLY one or two pages?

[i0wi]

Hi guys,
I have a problem which none of the addons seems to be able to solve.
I have around 250 contacts in 30 categories on my website (growing at about 2-3 users/month) and I have a page which I need dynamically updated. I am using the "component as content" plugin which calls around 30 "contact" pages and fills the tables, but this seems to be too much for the webserver to handle. A great solution would be to cache this page only, but all the components/plugins allow me to EXCLUDE only certain pages from caching. Since this is basically a content page, I can't exclude com_content because I have way too many pages...
Any smart suggestions?

I'm sorry I don't understand,

How are you listing your contacts and why can't you use built in joomla contact listing? Use built in Joomla and opcode caching and mysql query caching (if on vps or dedicated).

website url, screenshots, better explanation please.

Hello saasideas,
thanks for your reply although this thread is quite old.
I've managed to solve this particular problem (changed the page type/structure), so it's pointless to describe this one in more detail, but it would be nice to know if it is generally possible to specify which pages to cache and automatically not cache all the others - sort of a cache-whitelist
Thanks!

You can disable modules manually from caching in their settings, but otherwise no. You can using an extensions like jotcache in the JED and with some modifications you can probably achieve what you're after.

Otherwise modules and plugins can be controlled, not sure about fine grained component control though in Joomla itself.
