The LiteMage Cache extension for Magento will remain free to download from [[http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/litemage-cache-2.html|Magento Connect]] but requires the LiteMage module to work.

-==== New LiteMage tiers based on cached objects, what does it mean? ====
-Public cached objects are counted by url. So if you have a unique url that can be cached, then it is counted as 1 object.
-For example, layered navigation will have it's unique url, one category page with 10 different layered navigation will count as 11 objects. Also for view vary, like list view vs. grid view, also separate cached objects.
+==== How many public cache objects does a store use? ====
+LiteMage pricing is now tiered by a limit on public cache objects per Magento installation/user. How do you know how many public cache objects an installation/user is using?
-Our trial license provide unlimited cached objects for LiteMage.
+This can be checked through LiteMage crawler in the Magento Admin Panel.
-==== How many publicly cached objects does a store use? ====
+Magento Admin Panel-> System -> Cache Management -> LiteMage Crawler Warm-up Status -> List Size. If a store has multiple currencies/Languages, you may need to consider them when determining the total number of objects you need.
-LiteMage tiers are now based on publicly cached objects per domain. How do I know how many publicly cached objects an account/domain uses?
-It can be checked through LiteMage crawler in Magento Admin.

+==== Choosing a License ====
+A merchant does not have a running store yet or I don't have the ability to check through his or her Magento admin page. How can I estimate how many cached objects are required for his store?
-Magento Admin-> System -> Cache Management -> LiteMage Crawler Warm-up Status -> List Size. If a store  has multiple currencies/Languages, you may need to add them up into total objects count.
+There are only three tiers: Starter, Standard, and Unlimited. You can guestimate based upon their store's size, number of languages, currencies, and options. e.g. If you have 300 items for sale and each has 2 configuration options that render different pages in 10 languages... 300 x 2 x 10 = 6000. In this case, LiteMage Standard would be appropriate to cache this store.
-{{ :litespeed_wiki:cache:litemage:mlitemageobjects.png?800 |}}
+Public cache objects are also stored based on URL. If your site uses a layered navigation menu for example, each combination of selections from the layered menu will be its own publicly cached object.
+==== What happens if your site needs more cached objects than your license allows? ====
-==== How to decide which license to choose? ====
+LiteMage Starter has a limit of 1,500 public cache objects and LiteMage Standard has a limit of 25,000. Once these limits are reached, further public cache objects will not be stored. Your site will still work without any problems, but it will only be partially cached.
-A merchant does not have a running store yet or I don't have the ability to check through merchant magento admin page. How I can estimate how many cached objects required for his store?
-There are only three tiers:Free/Standard/Large. You can guestimate based upon their stores size, number of languages, currencies and options. e.g. If you have 300 items for sale,and each has 2 configuration options that render different pages, in 10 languages...300X2X10=6000 so standard would be appropriate.
+Pages not cached will be served by Magento directly. These pages will load more slowly than those that were cached. Overall, your site being partially cached is still much better than having no cache.
+We will display the number of the public cache objects in the Magento admin panel in a future release.
-==== What happen if required cached objects > license allowed objects ====
-For LiteMage Starter/Standard package, the good thing is: once the cache is filled with allowed objects, the site will be still working without any problem.
+For shared hosting server, LiteMage objects' limits are applied to each domain instead of the whole server. When one domain reaches the limit, the rest of domains can be still served from cache without any problem until they reach the limit by themselves.
-So if over the limit, the page will be served by Magento directly, same as no cache. Litemage will only stop cache for new pages, but cached pages will be still served from cache. Your user will see some pages load faster, some slow. Overall, it is still much better than no cache.
-We will display the public cached objects count in Magento admin panel in future release.
