Hey JPRuss,
All gadget specs are cached by default and are refreshed typically
every hour. This may not be what's causing the high server load. If
your gadget content contains other embedded resources that exist on
your servers such as images, feeds, etc., then this is likely the
problem.
Is your gadget serving any images, feeds, flash, etc. that are hosted
on your server?
If you send out the URL, I can take a look and see if there's a way to
decrease the load on your servers.
Thanks!
Dann

About 1 year ago, I made a gadget for weather. The gadget has become
very popular and there
are MANY MANY hits to my webpage / day to retrive the gadget from the
server
I keep seein in my log things like
71.gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=... every fiew minutes.
Is there a way, I can reduce the load on my server by having google
cache the fetch of the page
so that it doesn't have to refetch the same page every few minutes.
Sorry if this is answered somewhere else, I had trouble finding it.
Basically I'm looking for an option in maybe my XML gadget that turns
caching on/off?
Tks.
