    After. And you should set it after you have made all of the changes and edits that you are going to make, or disable it as you are making them.

    Quick answer, I don't think it really matters. W3 Total Cache senses when the cache goes stale if you add other plugins, change theme, etc. It will let you know when to clear the cache.

    I can just wait until I get the majority of my plugins installed.

    Here's what I've picked for my plugins & theme some of the plugins are
    for hiding my affiliate links & keywords.

    Theme: Atahualpa 3.5.3

    W3 Total Cache
    ShareThis
    Google XML Sitemaps
    GoCodes
    Exploit Scanner
    CPA Redirector
    AWeber Web Form
    All In One SEO

    How much traffic does your site receive? Unless you're receiving thousands of pageviews a day cache plugins are unlikely to make much of a difference.

    Wow, I haven't heard anyone dream that big since Digg was actually popular.
    Good luck!

    It's not just a digg effect the plugin takes a load off my hosts server & loads a hell
    of a lot faster using that plugin.
