Beware WP-Cache

Trying to speed things up here. Pages loading slow, and the host is talking about overages. Well, just a hint, don’t look to the WP-Cache plugin for speed. I found this today:

No more wp-cache • deanjrobinson.com

So last night almost exactly 24 hours after I installed, activated and configured wp-cache, guess what happened. Yes, my blog shat itself again. Thing was I was asleep and didn’t find out about it until this morning, so my site was down for 8 hours, really quite pissed off about that.

Wish I read this yesterday. That’s what happens when you watch a WordCamp 2007 video — they recommended WP-Cache, assumed it would still work if WP engineers made a point to recommend it. But that video is now three years old, what was I thinking?

Same problem here, the plugin seems to work for a while, fast. Then out of nowhere your pages stop working, entire site goes into a freeze. As soon as you turn off the plugin your site works again. But even when the plugin is operating “normally” you can’t leave a comment on cached pages!

There is only one real tip needed for Safer Internet Day. Go on strike until your employers dump IE6 and move to Firefox.
