Breeze – WordPress Cache Plugin


Hey, for quick and effective page caching, go for this plugin – it's great with or without Varnish or Cloudflare CDN. No need to mess around with CSS and JS; there's another plugin for that, doing the fancy stuff. Stick to this one for caching, and let the other one handle the techy bits. Easy peasy!


I suggest using it for Page Caching only, not CSS & JS optimization


Not bad, but you have to add the next features, without it, it's just another cache plugin.




Remove unused css!!!



Better support to CDN with exclude / include custom directory and files



And maybe, checking the plugin performance when the minify option is enabled.




Thanks


Not bad... But you have a work to do.

Breeze is a WordPress Caching Plugin developed by Cloudways. Breeze uses advance caching systems to improve WordPress loading times exponentially.
