This week’s best performer in Asia Pacific is GoDaddy, with a perfect uptime and the fastest average response time of 680ms.
The last time we tested from Asia Pacific (with no caching plugins setup setup in Week 119), the average response time across our 8 hosts was 1,178ms, while this week with WP Fastest Cache on board, it is noticeably faster at 996ms.
This is the third and final week of our WP Fastest Cache Speed Study and it’s unsurprising that WP Fastest Cache has proved to be faster than no caching plugin, when it comes to Response Times.
Next week we will be changing up our caching plugin to Simple Cache. I wonder how Simple Cache will perform compared to WP Fastest Cache?
And this Week’s Winner is…
