    I installed w3 total cache on a wordpress network with subdomain install.
    The site is hosted at hostgator.
    The CDN is Amazon CloudFront that delivers content from the Amazon S3.
    I set up ~ 50 child websites and the problem is this:
    W3 total cache does not recognize the files already in the bucket and keeps uploading them over and over again. 3 million requests in 3 days got me ~ $25 to be payed.
    Please help me in these 2 ways:
    1.Help me set up W3 Total Cache + Amazon CloudFront so it takes files from the hostgator server.
    2.Help me set up W3 Total Cache + Amazon CloudFront + Amazon S3 so that it does not make this huge number of uploads.
    Here is one of the config files I am using for the sites:

    Under Content Delivery Network tab, do you have Force over-writing of existing files enabled?

    That could generate that amount of requests.

    Yes, I had. Thank you for your support.
    I changed it and I will wait to see what happens
