   I performed this G search but didn't find much about WP2 content caching specifically:
   http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site%3Awordpress.org%2Fsupport%2F+wp-cache&btnG=Google+Search

   On the WP2.0 plugin compatibility page:
   http://codex.wordpress.org/User:Matt/2.0_Plugin_Compatibility

   ... it says this about WP-Cache:
   "No errors, but the actual caching doesn't seem to work properly. Also, there are reported problems with PHP 5."

   Any suggestions?

   I know there is a newfangled "object caching" in WP2, which sounds awesome.

   But all I really want is less queries & *even* better performance on my 20+ WordPress 2.0.1 installations. :)

   FYI - we have about 15+ plugins enabled (I know this will slow things down somewhat), but each WP page seems to be generating ~ 100 queries and taking several seconds. (sometimes 5 to 10 plus)

   Any suggestions would be mucho appreciated!!

   WP-Cache is the way to go, definitely.

   But, additionally you should look at what each query is coming from.. really. If you want to optimize, you need to know what the plugins are doing under the hood.

   Hi David,

   So is the comment on the WP Plugin Compatibility list incorrect?

   "No errors, but the actual caching doesn't seem to work properly."

   Have you gotten WP-Cache working on WordPress 2.0.1 ?

   Thanks!

   Shanti

   Well, WP-Cache has Windows-related problems, that I just worked around a few of... Once I got it enabled, it seems to be caching things properly.

   However, I must admit I haven't tested it extensively with newer WP, or with nice-URL permalinks enabled (htaccess rewrites). My WP2 test site seems to be properly caching requested posts and pages and the main index, though that's all WITHOUT rewrite rules.

   If you are running under Linux, you should be as functional with WP2 as earlier versions, I'd think. I haven't seen enough of the reports of WP2 issues, but a lot of what I HAVE seen seems to also correlate with upgrading to PHP5 or other updates occurring parallel with the switch to WP2, making it confusing where issues are occurring.

   My setup is Wampserver on WinXP.
   -php 5.0.2
   -apache 1.3.33
   -mysql 4.1.7 (I think)

   WP code is 2.1alpha, trunk from day or two back. Can't see it affecting things either way.
