Today we're going to compare the performance of a WordPress site before and after we install and optimize the WP Super Cache plugin.
We're running Ubuntu 16.04 Server, Nginx 1.10, PHP 7 with the Zend OPcache, MariaDB, and WordPress 4.6 with a few other plugins (Akismet, Jetpack, Yoast SEO, and Google Analytics). The system itself is a humble virtual server with 1 "core", 2 GB RAM, and SSD storage, costing $10/month.
