Hello!

I have been investigating a new plugin called Varnish, which increase the site loading speed significantly. Have you any experience installing this plugin on a server? Here is the site https://www.varnish-cache.org/.

Thanks in advance!

We’ve used it here.
Basically if you Google the topic on optimizing Varnish on server for WordPress then it will work well.

Not theme specific 🙂

Hey Chirs, thanks for the answer 🙂

Have you seen a significant improvement in the page loading speed? Would you recommend it?

Thanks again!

I think we chose to use opcache/APC + mod_pagespeed here …

but Varnish has been around quite awhile — lots of folks use it with NGINX server setups, especially. We’re Apache-centric here (at my company) so we’re kind of using the stuff built into Apache, CentOS, Plesk, where possible.

Waiting on HTTP/2 support to get one dot newer with Apache, as this replaces SPDY and some other stuff and is the cat’s total meow! 🙂
