After the LPS-45558 the cache does not apply to web content displayed directly in a theme template via the journalContent API, impacting directly in the performance.

In this scenario only a themeDisplay object can be provided to the API

This is an example of the affected code having a theme with the setting footer-articleId:

<#assign 
   journalContent = serviceLocator.findService("com.liferay.journal.util.JournalContent") 
   articleId = getterUtil.getString(theme_settings["footer-articleId"])
   articleGroupId = themeDisplay.getScopeGroupId()
/>

<#if validator.isNotNull(articleId)>
   ${journalContent.getContent(articleGroupId , articleId, "VIEW", locale, themeDisplay)}
</#if>
