If anyone is interested, read this
article and then we can have a discussion what people like the best. Currently I am running XCache but its not tuned the way I want it. I am most likely going to try others, to see if I can get better performance. The Demo site with the following plugins:
Calendar
Captcha
Forum
Links
Polls
Spam-X
Static Pages
Vthemes
XMLSitemap
Page loads are as follows:
Non-logged -in users - 0.31
Logged-in users - 0.39
These numbers are a tad high because I do have about 15 total sites on this one machine, so that might account for some of the reasons for it being high. I have notated that when when the number of sites that are not running, that the load times have dropped down to as low as .08 seconds. for non logged in users.
