 * W3TC and Cloudflare offer similar features like caching and minification.
 * Should these features be enable on both W3TC and cloudflare, or is it enough 
   for them to be enable on either?
 * What works best to improve speed?
 * Thanks

 * You can enable both. But doing so might break things on your site but other times
   it really helps. For instance if page speed is telling you that you still need
   to compress and save 500bytes or something insignificant.
 * But you can’t have both if you are using the cloudflare extension.

 * You mean the cloudflare plugin for WP?

 * No, login to your CF account, and remove the W3TC CF extension. From there, you
   can change the settings. If you attempt to activate the minify from the extension
   you will be rejected if you are using the built-in minify option as well.
 * Go to your CF account and change the settings from there after removing the extension.
