MVC & Caching

[ragtek]

I've read several articles about caching.
Some of they say, that the caching should happen in the model, other say that it should happen in the controller.



(ATM i'm always reading & writing in the controller and never in the model), but i thought very often, that it would be much better in the model, because i could use model->getFromCache() instead of

$cache = cache::getInstance();
if ($cache->read('myKey..');
$foo = $model::read();
$cache->write('key', $foo);
..

What do the xenforo coders/addon coders think?

I know there is no "real way", it's like the discussion about fat model vs fat controller^^



Edit: nevermind, i've saw that xenforo provides already cacheaccess in the model

XenForo really follows fat model/thin controller, mostly because controller code is hard to reuse.
