Which cache?

[AndreaMarucci]

I'd like to try to use a cache on my XF. i've read something about memcache bu maybe there are other types of cache to use.

Can you give me some suggestion on what to use?

The server is mine, I use WHM and cpanel and I've PHP 7. my forum has about 200 users with 300K messages.

Thanks!

Memcached and PHP 7 still aren't compatible I think.
I'd use Redis paired with the built in Opcache.

Thanks. I really don't know anything about the cache systems so I'm asking for advice. Your solution it's ok at performance level?

Actually not fully correct.




Of course, it does require manual compilation (which is easy enough if using CentOS and CentMin Mod by @eva2000)
I also use Redis, but the only issue I have is it relies on an add-on to work.

Memcached or Redis + Zend OpCache

I'm running php 5.6 with OpCache and Memcached.

Used to run XCache for both front and back-end for my XF site; wasn't that bad but ended up using it less these days.

Also curious about this. I'm running memcached but just upgraded to a dedi and I'm wondering if I can better optimize my caching.

What are the benefits of some of these caches over others?

Plenty of topics in this forum discussing that.
