How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    Great caching plugin. It is very light and it just does its work. I am using it with Apcu for object cache and file for cache storage and it is amazingly fast! My VPS is thanking you!

    Hey Chris, when setting a potentially faulty redis config, the plugin breaks PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function setOption() on null in pathtowordpress/plugins/mega-cache/includes/atec-wpmc-connect-redis.php:30 Here’s the problematic line: if (($rdSettings['serializer']??0)!==0) @$atec_wpmc_source['redis']->setOption(Redis::OPT_SERIALIZER, $rdSettings['serializer']); A Redis option (Redis::OPT_SERIALIZER) is only set if the 'serializer' key exists and isn’t 0 in$rdSettings, but if the Redis connection doesn’t succeed due to a bad config, then$atec_wpmc_source['redis'] will be set to null within that catch block, so the plugin should only set the option if the Redis connection was successful, like if $atec_wpmc_source['redis'] isnt null

    I’ve tried many cache plugins over the years and nothing comes even close! Hands down the fastest page caching plugin on the market! Run some speed tests and compare for yourself…you will not be disappointed!

    This is the fastest Page Cache Plugin out there. It supports 8 storage options but is still a lightweight plugin.Configuration is simple: Choose a storage option and turn on the page cache – that’s it.Memcached and Redis are very popular but APCu is the fastest cache option supported by this plugin.A great feature is the integrated statistics to compare the performance and savings.
