On top of this foundation, we add layers of caching, prerendering and edge delivery optimizations — not the other way around.

ChatGPT: The InnoDB buffer pool is used by MySQL to cache frequently accessed data in memory. If we expand the cache concept more, the buffer pool could be even less if the working set (hot data) is smaller. The answer does not consider the queue or latency of the sample, which could indicate a disk with issues.
