 * I just released WP-Cache 1.0 after serveral weeks of developing and testing:

 * WP-Cache is extremely efficient WordPress hack â€“not a simple pluginâ€“ for 
   page caching. It allows to serve hundred of times more pages per second, and 
   to reduce the response time from several tenths of seconds to less than a millisecond.

 * Testing now. Thanks.
 * Ok. Im running WP 1.2.2 and It doesnt appear in the plugins area to activate.
   All other plugins I use work fine.

 * Probably because it’s not a plugin.

 * However it would be nice if it didn’t require changing core files. What if we
   put a file_exists call early in the wp-settings execution that could include 
   a cache plugin if it existed? You’d only ever want one caching plugin at a time.
   Then a do_action() call later could catch CachePhase2().

 * Then where do we insert the file?

   my English (hint: I’m Spanish).

 * Can a plugin add its self to $acceptableFiles
 * like for instances
 * `
    if(class_exists("CacheMeta")) $acceptableFiles[] = "wp-advanced-stats.php";

 * suggestion :
    Instead or rewriting from scratch what already does exist, may 
   be it would be a great idea to write a tutorial about how to use PEAR:Cache_Lite
   with WP [http://pear.php.net/package/Cache_Lite](http://pear.php.net/package/Cache_Lite)
 * My two cents

 * Did you see the Wp-cache code?
 * Do you know it re-uses code from Staticize?
 * Do you is extremely optimized for WordPress?
 * Do you know is fun (and easy) this kind of programming?
 * Do you know I enjoyed programming it?
 * Do you know we do it for fun?

 * New version for WordPress 1.5, easier to install and configure:

 * Ricardo –
 * Glad to see you’ve updated for 1.5. Nice. But, at some point, you really should
   add some history description BACK into the code, since you based off of Staticize,
   and that had it’s own historical tracking of the work.
 * Just a suggestion — since your message last month asked “Do you know it re-uses
   code from Staticize?”, and if it wasn’t that I hacked up my own version of Reloaded,
   no, I wouldn’t have had any idea that you had extended an existing work of code…
   😉
 * Keep the features coming!

 * About release notes, yes, you’re right. I will add it soon.
 * OTH, in the release notes of 1.0, [http://mnm.uib.es/gallir/posts/2005/02/02/111/](http://mnm.uib.es/gallir/posts/2005/02/02/111/),
   I explain the history and how is derivated from Staticize-reloaded, I also added
   a trackback to the original staticize-reloaded post.

 * Understood..
 * also – is there a reason you went the semaphore approach? That’d look to be something
   that isn’t always available to a particular php install. when I hacked up Reloaded
   for my own use, I added proper flock()s, but I know that there are certain OSes
   that apparently don’t respect flock (or just plain don’t implement it)… though
   I have never been told which ones. Adding flock solved all my issues during my
   slashdotting… 😉
