Database Cache with Redis does nothing

    Hello.
    Tried to set “Database Cache” with “Redis” and it seems to push data to Redis but doesn’t seem to pull the data from it. Run a couple of benchmarks and there is no difference between “Database Cache” enabled or disabled. The only significant difference is with “Disk” option enabled.
    Thank you.

    Hello @furioussnail

    Thank you for your inquiry and I am happy to assist you with this.
    “Memory Cache” stores and loads resources to and from Memory (RAM). So this is much faster but it is non-persistent. Content is available until you close the Browser.
    “Disk Cache” is persistent. Cached resources are stored and loaded to and from disk.
    However, you can enable persistent connecting in the Performance>Database Cache for Redis.
    Thanks!

    What does have the browser to do with Redis? As I explained caching isn’t working with Redis. Keys get pushed to the DB but don’t get pulled.

    Hello @furioussnail

    Thank you for the clarification.
    W3 Total Cache allows you to use Redis as a memory caching solution. Please make sure to double-check the Redis configuration an make sure to check their documentation.
    Thanks!
