why cache wordpress

One other reason is MySql, which can handle 2500 concurrent connections but only about 50 concurrent users, problems arise when you for instance have a large file table or registered user table, that for indexing builds a temporary index table (the digg-effect where a sudden massive rush on the site makes mysql opt out).

Using any caching mechanism diminishes the load on the mysql server which effectively solves most problems with the site slowing down. For wordpress, removing unnecessary plug-ins helps, as does a page-cache.But neither solves the actual problem, the mysql database interaction.

Wordpress-MU might in time deliver the goods, a stable mysql query caching mechanism, and for now it seems the ‘ease-of-use’ and the simplicity of the source-code dictate a page-cacher will have to do for the standalone version.

So depending on your plans with a website, where Wordpress is the ideal tool for a site with up to, say, 1000 pages, if you plan on a larger business strength site use a CMS that does have backend mysql query-caching.
