File-Based Extension to the WordPress Object Cache

Published March 29th, 2008 in Software 16 Comments Tags: , , , ,

WordPress 2.5 has just been released, and has users are quickly finding out, file-based object caching has been removed from this release.

We've just released another extension to the WordPress object cache mechanism, supplementing our existing plugins for adding eAccelerator and XCache support to WordPress's object caching features.

NeoSmart Technologies' File-Based object caching extension for WordPress re-implements the cache-to-disk object caching feature of WordPress 2.0 through to 2.2. NeoSmart Technologies is also committed to the maintenance and support of the file-based caching mechanism.

Please be careful with the use of this plugin. It's been disabled in the default WordPress codebase since WordPress 2.1 as a result of certain shared webhosts complaining of increased disk I/O access and thrashing when WordPress is subjected to extreme load times (as in the event of a Digg or Slashdot attack); so make sure your disk is fast enough to make it worth using this extension.

NeoSmart Technologies advises the use of one of the memory-based caching extensions (below) for all WordPress users on dedicated servers.

    I uploaded this as noted, but it doesn't show in my list of plugins? It's in the right directory. Any ideas? Any documentation for this plugin?

    It doesn't show in the list of plugins since it sits in wp-content/ and not in wp-content/plugins/

    When i try to install the object-cache, i'm getting the following error:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare wp_cache_add() (previously declared in /home/www/blogoff.de/wp-includes/cache.php:24) in /home/www/blogoff.de/wp-content/object-cache.php on line 22

    Me again :) Found the reason for the error above. It was my own fault, because i had changed something in wp-settings.php, that i shouldnt have.. :-S You can delete both of my comments if you want..
