Abstract

A system and method is described herein that cache web documents in two or more caches in an optimized manner. The web documents result from a plurality of queries presented to a web search engine. Each web document has a tier score indicating a position of the web document in the caches. The tier scores are modified in a manner that rearranges the web documents in caches. This rearrangement of the web documents in the caches can advantageously improve the retrieval time for the web documents.
