Great for speed, but needs a lot of resources

    I tried it and yes your site becomes really fast, but I removed it because you need lot of RAM/CPU power if your site becomes more visitors. It should be much better if you use this plugin together with Varnish. Without Varnish you need to use W3TC or SuperCache.

    Hi,

    This never happened with anyone before.
    Could you please post your configuration and the more visitors you described?

    Hi,
    I used Memcache for caching, since the plugin needs RAM to process the cached entries, the server runs out of memory very fast.
    Simply: Compare the usage from your own plugin with the .htaccess in SuperCache. I did a 1000 user load test on a a 1GB VPS and using SuperCache it succeeds and your plugin produced 99% timeouts.

    As I said, this never happened to anyone before. I’ve developed this on an 512M RAM VPS.

    Caching one page requires a few bytes ( < 512 ) metadata entry + the page HTML, which should not be over 50kB. (If it is, the theme is killing the page.) To fill up 50MB RAM you need to cache 1k pages in case you have the mentioned 50kB HTML pages. 50MB RAM should not be an issue in 2014.

    Could you please send me the PHP version, the PHP Memcache module version, the webserver version you are using in order to help with this?
    By the way, the original Memcache module is very old, I would recommend using the Memcached module instead.

    I do want to make this plugin faster, and I would appreciate the help.
