 * I am caching the search results. But every time I make a new post, the search
   cache is cleared.
    I noticed that the search cache is registered as: meta-wp-
   cache-a237583666197c307d82bdca876d7b2b.php and wp-cache-a237583666197c307d82bdca876d7b2b.
   php
 * How do I prevent these files from being deleted when I post?
    Remembering that
   the directive “Clear all cache files when a post or page is published or updated.”
   is disabled.

 * Unfortunately I don’t think it’s possible to easily disable clearing those cache
   files. Won’t the search cache files become stale as soon as you post something
   new?
 * At least the files that contain a search that would return the new post will 
   be stale.
