 * [Im going off this article.](https://codex.wordpress.org/Nginx#WP_Super_Cache_Rules)
   We currently use all the configurations they recommend and are trying to figure
   out the caching now.
 * I dont want to recompile NGINX to get the fastcgi_cache_purge module. Is SuperCache
   the best option? I work at a university and times of big pres releases we get
   slammed.
