When I reviewed memcached previously, I got faster performance with wp-cache than memcached…..but that was about 16 months ago.  So I decided to give it another run for the money on a few sites.  The installation is pretty simple….especially since I scripted most of it for you…..

After you have memcached installed, next is configuring wordpress.

Install the wordpress plugin Memcached

Copy the file wp-content/plugins/memcached/object-cache.php wp-content/object-cache.php

edit wp-content/object-cache.php if you are using multiple memcached servers or different ports to define each and set:

[codesyntax lang=”bash”]

$port = 11211;

$buckets = array(‘127.0.0.1’);

[/codesyntax]

or you can also set the values in wp-config.php file at the very end….the default values are for localhost, if it is an external host, change 127.0.0.1 to the hosts ip address.

[codesyntax lang=”bash”]

global $memcached_servers;
$memcached_servers = array(‘default’ => array(‘127.0.0.1:11211′));

[/codesyntax]

If you don’t want to use the memcache.php page, there is another utility called memcached-top which you can grab from:

[codesyntax lang=”bash”]

wget http://memcache-top.googlecode.com/files/memcache-top-v0.6
chmod +x memcache-top-v0.6
./memcache-top-v0.6

[/codesyntax]
