Abstract

A cache management method and system for storing dynamic contents such as web pages. In a computing environment, a server maintains a cache for temporarily storing dynamic pages. Each of the cached pages is associated with resource information indicating a level of resources used to create the cached page. A newly created page replaces one of the cached pages in the cache if it is less expensive to recreate that cached page than to recreate the newly created page based on the resource information.
