Increasing number of queries?

[cemiltr]

Hi. I added in theme:

<?php echo get_num_queries(); ?>

But when I activate the plugin**, the number of queries increases?**

Shouldn't the number of queries be reduced? thanks

Do you have a persistent object cache? If not this may not work the way you think it does

I am not using any other plugin. I just wanted to try this plugin. the number of queries increased, this did not seem normal to me. thanks

if you don't have a persistent object cache then anything advanced post cache tries to cache goes in WP_Cache and then is wiped at the end of the request. You need a persistent object cache to be able to use this, the same way batcache requires it, it isn't a standalone plugin.

That's why your queries go up, it's priming the cache with WP_Query data on every request, but there's no persistence on your install because you don't have a persistent object cache set up.

You should set up a Redis/Memcached object cache drop in file before using this repo
