 * You are also calling this 3 times in the same function. I cannot see a reason
   for it.

 * Hi Daniela,
 * I am 99% sure that this is the issue I am having. It seems that my site has grown
   too large for memcached to work efficiently.
 * I highly recommend you to include information such as this last post (re 2MB 
   limit) within your documentation. If I have missed it then I am sorry. I believe
   the best way you will avoid so many questions in the future is to give people
   the information to consider such as “If memcached is causing your site to be 
   slow here are a list of things to check”.
 * I think that the standard query caching in WordPress is now very good and my 
   site has never been faster.
 * Many thanks for your help and quick responses.

 * Hi again,
 * The specific query I am looking at is returning around 6MB of data (nearly 4000
   posts). I have read somewhere that memcached values are limited to 1MB. The smaller
   queries seem ok. So what I am thinking is that due to the size of this specific
   query it is not getting saved in Memcached and is therefore being requested by
   the database.
 * Then, when I turn memcached off, the query is able to access the WP query cache
   and return the results without using the database.
 * Could this be the issue? Is there a limit on the value size in memcached on your
   server?

 * On initial page load there is no problem. Memcached is working well. I have tested
   it with Query Monitor and Object Cache hits increase from about 70% (Memcached
   off) to 100% (Memcached on). I also think the initial page load is slightly quicker
   as per these values.
 * However, as discussed earlier, the major issue I’m having is that the subsequent
   ajax query which loads the posts and filters takes double the time with Memcached
   on. I can’t really see how a plugin or theme problem could cause this but I will
   continue trying to figure it out.
 * Thanks for your continued help. I will move onto the help desk if I cannot figure
   it out myself.

 * Ok many thanks,
 * I confirm that with memcached switched on the admin ajax requests are taking 
   almost twice as long to complete. I can see that it is almost impossible to determine
   the cause of this due to the lack of documentation available on this function.
 * I’ll leave it switched off for now.
 * Many thanks for your help.

 * Ok, can you clarify this sentence “WordPress has a built-in object cache that
   can be backed by Memcached”.
 * When you say “can” do you mean that it is not the standard operation of memcached
   within your plugin? So do I have to change something to make this happen?
 * It seems like the standard wordpress query cache is working without memcached
   with an ajax request but when memcached is switched on there is no caching, although
   I am determining this purely based on the timings supplied in the earlier post.

 * Ok, would you be able to clarify one more thing please.
 * Would a database query (e.g. get_posts) called from an ajax function check the
   memcache storage?
 * If the answer is yes, is there any way to stop it from doing that?
 * My best guess is that the queries are being searched for in memcache but do not
   exist because they are not cached due to being ajax requests.
 * Alternatively is there a way to store these requests in memcached?

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for your assistance with this. It is appreciated.
 * I have been doing some more investigation and I now see that the specific query
   which is being affected by Memcache is an admin ajax query. (My site loads posts
   and archive filters by admin ajax on page load.) I understand that admin ajax
   queries are not cached but I was wondering why having Memcache active would slow
   down this query?
 * Actual timings for the server response for the ajax query are:
 * Without Memcache – 869ms
 * With Memcache – 1.69 secs
 * These values are very consistent each time I load the page.
 * Any help or explanation you can offer would be appreciated.

 * Ok, many thanks. I understand now that a memcache process is working even with
   the plugin option switched off. This makes sense. Is there any technical documentation
   which explains what switching memcache on in the plugin does extra to the process
   that is already running?
 * I have 5 websites which vary greatly in size and theme / plugin make up. All 
   of them are faster with the plugin option switched off so at the moment it seems
   the best option for me.
 * Thanks again for your help, it is much appreciated.

 * Just to add that with Memcached switched off in the plugin options it is still
   showing as active in phpinfo.

   Can you confirm that this plugin supports this?

 * Hi again,
 * The problem still exists. The line 1346
 * `if($responseSending['body'] != '') {`
 * will produce an error if $responseSending is a WP_Error. The result is that you
   will get a PHP Fatal error and the rest of the code will not process. Most importantly
   the insert_failed_email function will not run and so the email is lost forever.
   Your server was down for hours last night and many emails were not sent and I
   had no way to know which ones had failed.
 * Happy to give this another week and then I will look for a more professional 
   option.
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * I see the latest update 3.2.5 incorporates the fix I mentioned earlier. However,
   it will still produce an error. I had to make further changes which I did not
   document here but it seems your team didn’t bother to check this.
 * I am not going to tell you what to do but I will say that with the current code
   there will still be an error based on line 1346 if $responseSending is a WP_error
   it will not work. $responseSending[‘body’] will not exist.
 * Please check the code and kindly remark this topic as unresolved.

 * Hi,
 * I have updated to the latest version 3.2.4 and this error has still not been 
   fixed. It is incredible how long your developers take to address these issues.
 * I will continue using my original fix and hope that one day in 2025 this is officially
   fixed.

 * At line 1310 the same command is written as:
 * `if(!is_wp_error( $responseSending )) {
   update_option('transmail_test_mail_case',
   $responseSending['body'], false);}
 * I have updated 1337 as the same as a temp fix. Hopefully this will solve the 
   problem.
