[Plugin: WP Super Cache] Fastest setting for Non-Blog use of cache

  • My site is not a blog. So I only need pages to refresh in the cache when I actually edit the page.

    Currently I am use:
    Use mod_rewrite to serve cache files.
    Compress pages so they’re served more quickly to visitors.
    Cache rebuild. Serve a supercache file to anonymous users while a new file is being generated.
    Clear all cache files when a post or page is published.

    I also have Preload enabled, every 60 minutes, Preload MODE is on.

    These seem to make a major improvement, but just wanted to make sure I was doing everything possible. Should I turn off GC?

    Thanks!

    Peter-

    So been experimenting with the cache settings, and I noticed it does seem faster, but only for the pages I have already manually requested. I have preload at 0, and GC at 0 just to keep hosting the same files. I noticed that it is updating the WP-CACHE files every time I request a page, and those pages will then load quickly on a second request, but the super cache files, seem to be available for each page, but I am assuming its not hosting them if it is generating a new cache file per each request. Am I missing something? Currently the I have 30 WP-CACHE files, and 246 WP-Super-Cache files…. It seems the 30 pages in the WP-CACHE are the ones that do load quickly, but since I have so many files, I can’t list to verify. Anyway to use preload to generate the WP-CACHE?

    Thanks!

    James,

    I looked at the site. It seems all pages I visited are cached, and load pretty fast.

    Do you have the option “Don’t cache pages for known users” on? If so, you need to log out to test the cache. But even so, I think that it remembers that you have been logged in (or left a comment) before (maybe through a cookie).
    What I do, is I have another browser (I develop in Firefox, and test in Chrome) I use to test the cache. A browser I never use to log in or comment (and which I specifically use to test .

    Try that again with another browser.

    It does seem faster.. I guess it is just the shared server load, depends on when I check. But I do notice that it generates WP-CACHE files for each new page, even though there are super cache files… any way to preload those? Would that actually save me anytime or are the wp-cache files fairly light load?

    Thanks for all your help. The site is way faster today on all browsers then it was a few ago. James

    Would not be able to help you with the super-cache / wp-cache question… Donncha might answer that…

    Welcome! Peter
