    I'm a big fan of W3 Total Cache for making your wordpress blog a lot faster. However, there's always room for improvement and my team has spotted a few flaws, one is actually pretty serious in my opinion, especially now Google is looking at site speed.

    Anyway, just wondering if you guys have had any errors, bugs or issues with W3TC that annoy you, and if you had any improvements or new features you would like to see?

    Cant stand having to refresh preview or having to clear cache after each change of site.

    Thanks for asking

    I used w3 total cache before, and it run well, however i checked the page speed with firebug, it didn't make it more faster.

    You have to be doing something wrong.

    The autoupload feature seems not to be working fine on some blogs I've installed as it kept creating tons of folders in my cdn subdomain. The minifier still doesn't work for my site. Other than these two glitches, the plug-in ain't leaving my blog EVER ;-)!

    Hopefully that feature will be added in upcoming versions. For now it's only available when updating certain plug-ins and moderating comments.

    I installed this plugin as recomended from my technical support hosting.
    They said this plugin is good to clear cache my blog.
