 * Well by now, I’m sure we have all seen this error…
 * A persistent object cache makes your site’s database more efficient, resulting
   in faster load times because WordPress can retrieve your site’s content and settings
   much more quickly.
 * Your hosting provider can tell you if a persistent object cache can be enabled
   on your site. Your host appears to support the following object caching services:
   Memcache, Memcached.
 * I manage my own server. Memcache is installed. This has been verified by my hosting
   company.
 * Does a plugin need to be used to make this error go away?
 * Can you please shed some light on this situation? I can’t be the only one that
   is wondering! lol
 * Thanks in advance,
 * -Joe

 * This won’t cause any conflicts?
 * I have a paid account with WPOptimize if that makes any difference. 🙂

   No. WP Optimize does page caching. i.e. It caches the HTML response returned 
   by server whereas Memcache does database query result caching

 * Understood. I have installed memcached and added the salt.
 * Could be my imagination, but the sites I have done this on Do seem to be faster!
 * Found clear instructions here:
