+
+``AdminSite`` and ``caching``
+=============================
+
+``AdminSite`` is a set of pages which you probably do not want to cache at all. There
+are two simple ways to exclude them.
+
+If only a small fraction of your traffic is generated by authenticated users, you may just
+set the :setting:`CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_ANONYMOUS_ONLY`setting to ``True``.
+See the :ref:`cache documentation <topics-cache>` for more information.
+
+Other solution is to tell Django not to cache the whole admin subtree, using decorator at
+URLs configuration::
+
+    # urls.py
+    from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
+    from django.contrib import admin
+    from django.views.decorators.cache import never_cache
+
+    admin.autodiscover()
+
+    urlpatterns = patterns('',
+        ('^admin/(.*)', never_cache(admin.site.root)),
+    )
+
