3.0%

of downloads still active

At least 70K of 2.3M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Performance plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,104 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Performance plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 15 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    I am very grateful to you, the developers, for your work. Truly the only plugin of its kind. It works perfectly. My setup has WP disk caching disabled, but I have caching enabled on Cloudflare CDN.

    The addon improved the speed of my site greatly. What I miss is an auto-purge of pages I just edited. Manual purge is a workaround, but I think this should be the default.

    This plugin is amazing! Combined with Cloudflare free account to get the best of edge locations is just great. I’m getting around 98% cache on one website, and somewhere around 80% on another one. And getting “HIT” on every Cloudflare location, giving me great TTFB results with it (76-300ms). In terms of cache and Cloudflare delivery is the best one out there. I used to use WP Fastest Cache Premium or LiteSpeed and the first seems to be quite abandoned in terms of features, and the second one is clumsy, cluttered, and QUIC CDN is not that good compared to Cloudflare. I do miss some optimization settings such as minify JS or minify CSS, and some more performance options. But in terms of cache is just great
