ActorAgeCheck.com has received a minor update today to improve speed and functionality. A new version is still on the way, but this minor update has some large backend changes that should result in a much faster experience and will pave the way for future development.

I hope everyone stays safe and healthy!

This update:

• Adds support for special characters in the search field, and improves foreign-alphabet compatibility for person pages as well as movie pages
• Improvements to foreign language display
• A brand new caching system has been activated.
  • The previous caching system worked well; however, it made two calls to the cache system for every request in an effort to reduce processing time and get data processed in the backend quicker. This only reduced processing time in some scenarios, and actually increased it in scenarios where the cache data was valid. I felt this could be streamlined, so the new caching system is based on a database architecture and a single system call is now made for each cache request, with all logic handled in one sweep. The difference should be very noticeable when the site is under stress.
    
    Note: This new cache system will be monitored to ensure it is improving site responsiveness, and not hindering it.
