    Super Cache is good. Seems to be anyway.

    I now use super cache, doesn't help much. I need a stronger server I guess.

    Five bucks says either you;re running it in half mode or you have it set up incorrectly.

    But just to clarify.

    wp-cache: http://mnm.uib.es/gallir/wp-cache-2/

    created by Ricardo Galli Granada.

    where it came from: "WP-Cache started from the '''Staticize Reloaded''' by matt and billzeller."

    It basically saves the data from the database that gets called each and every time a url within your blog is accessed (ie The blog name, the url, authors, etc.) and saves it to to a single file instead of having to recall all that over and over again.

    wp-super-cache: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/

    author: Donncha O Caoimh

    It actually has wp-cache built in and can run just using that part but also saves the outputted served pages as static zipped files. If the url is accessed again, the webserver serves the zipped file to the visitor.

    Hope this helps,
