I tried WP-FFPC with nginx + apc + memcached. But I′m not sure pages were cached. When I have time I′ll try again without the policy DONOTCACHE

@download Converter According to GTmetrix, the html loads in 512ms. All the rest: javascripts, images, fonts… loads in 7 seconds the first time. But when you visit the second, third… page, all the rest that load in 7 seconds, are now in cache. So it loads in less than 1 second.

About your question, it′s neither a shared or dedicated server, is a VPS. You can call it dedicated, but a vps it′s far the power from a dedicated, starting for few memory, few cpus… My VPS was the lowest plan: (2 cpus, 2 GB Memory)

But you dont need a vps, although it helps, because you can customize all the parameters.

I′m planning to use Cloudfare, and try minify settings. Although I couldn′t get it working with W3TC (I think there were problems with theme javascripts order). If it works with CLoudfare, I suppose the first load will be much better. Although I don′t worry much about the first taking 7 seconds if you receive the html in half second, and the rest pages are quickly ??

@download Converter 200 ms is in receiving html, of course. The whole page is between 1 second and 2. You can try yourself in https://www.feldy.es. The website is in spanish, but you can go to “Catalogo”, and inside there there are a lot of categories full of pictures.

@petermolnar 200 ms in receiving html. I was comparing only time receiving html (comparing only page cache). I′m planning to do a full analysis between all the cache systems, because after using W3TC, then WP-FFPC, I used Super Cache and discovered in debug mode that pages were not cached due to woocommerce “DONOTCACHE” policy. As I only use woocommerce for catalog, not for shopping, I deleted that policy. So I′ll do a full analysis comparing all the three systems. Do you think pages were not cached in WP-FPPC due to this policy?

Use nginx instead of apache. Nginx is very fast serving static html, and it′s lighter (nginx + php-fpm is very good combination). So think about nginx + wp super cache…
