On 2.33 i had define('ENABLE_CACHE', true) in my wpconfig and was able to use the buiilt-in cache quite effectively to store my sidebars.
But in 2.5, nothing happens - nothing is being cached. (I can tell becuase I measure load times by comparing microtimes.)
Also, the cache folder isn't being populated with anything. Does 2.5 with built-in cache enabled use /wp-content/cache/ at all? Or is it someplace else that I need to create the cache folder?
THanks
2.5 no longer has the built in object cache that can write to files, as such. It almost never helped anybody, and usually degraded performance quite drastically.

Also, here's a way to get it back:
