Will it slow down my admin?

Updated NimbleCache 1.7.0Tested with WordPress 7.1

No. NimbleCache loads its admin code only in the admin, and only the parts a screen needs; the few jobs it does while you work are listed below.

  • Saving a post clears that post and the pages that list it, never the whole cache.
  • A cache in front of yours, such as Cloudflare through its own plugin, is told about each clear at the end of the save. Where the server allows it (PHP-FPM or LiteSpeed), your browser has its answer first; elsewhere the save waits for that cache, for up to 8 seconds.
  • Each admin page an administrator opens compares the fast-path file with the plugin's own copy, and replaces it after an update.
  • Preloading, if you switch it on, fetches a few pages every five minutes in the background and stands down while the server is busy.

On the front end it loads five small classes, and a cached page does not run WordPress at all.

The NimbleCache dashboard in WordPress admin. A green notice reads The cache is on and pages are served before WordPress loads. Four cards show 11 pages cached (2 MB), an average build of 229 ms, a 12 hour page lifetime and preloading off. A Fast Path panel ticks off advanced-cache.php installed and current, WP_CACHE switched on in wp-config.php, the cache directory writable and compressed pages. An Exclusions panel lists what is never cached, and a Clearing Log lists recent full clears with the plugin that probably caused each.
