• I am little curious how this plugin handles the expired pages and “cache timeout” feature before the GC runs to delete them so that I can choose the appropriate cachetimeout and expiry settings according to number of visits and available resources.

    For example I have a page with 60 min cache timeout. The garbage collector (GC) is set to run after 24 hours.

    Now suppose when a new visitor visits that expired page after 60 minutes, would the plugin

    1) serve this expired cache page and regenerate the new cached page while deleting the old one for the subsequent visitors with “FRESH CACHE TIMEOUT” stamp or

    2) serve this expired cache page and keep it with “OLD CACHE TIMEOUT STAMP” until GC deletes it?

    PS: “Cache Rebuild. Serve a super cache file to anonymous users while a new file is being generated” is checked always.
