Is there any similar exists for OC 1.5?

I have around 47000 products in my store and is too slow when load each category.
I disabled category count, still it is same.

I am using OC 3.0.3.3 and where can I use the code cache_category_data.xml please

Thats old code but I offer optimization for 6 to 8 hours @ $95/hr if you so desire. Let us know if you need it done? Guarenteed faster speed. We do upfront payment for small projects like this.
