thanks i’ve never set up master slave mysql databases before so this is a huge help to me and hopefully others …. i’m a little confused as to what memcached does …it seems like it also caches pages like yours does but stores them in memory instead of disk…. is that right? or is memcache plugin configured just for mysql database caching? (another thing i’m confused about mysql has caching of its own so do i need to even look for database caching plugins for wordpress)
i have not looked at db cache reloaded but if that will help speep up queries in the master and slave for LOGGED IN users then that’s what i need to do
my configuration right now is
1 web server running all php, apache, wordpress …and using its mysql server …then another server which is a bare bones mysql only server that is the slave …. i am running wordpress, buddypress, wp-super cache (page caching and cdn) …. hyperdb for load balancing …..now the piece i seem to be missing is database caching which i’m thinking the memcached plugin OR db cache reloaded iw what i need…. if you were me what would you use?
thanks!
PS i just went to the db cache reloaded plugin and lots of people saying its broken for 3.1 https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-db-cache-reloaded-plugin-broken-with-wp-31?replies=32
