<p>Caching for a snappier website.</p>
<p>When a WordPress page loads normally, it goes through:</p>
<ol>
<li>PHP execution</li>
<li>Database queries (often 20-50+ queries)</li>
<li>Theme processing</li>
<li>Plugin execution</li>
<li>HTML generation</li>
</ol>
<p>With Snappy file-based caching, it skips all that and just serves a static HTML file.</p>
<p>Estimates for performance improvement:</p>
<ul>
<li>2x faster is conservative and achievable for most sites</li>
<li>5x faster is realistic for database-heavy sites</li>
<li>10x faster is possible for poorly optimized sites with many plugins</li>
</ul>
<h4>Advanced Version</h4>
<p>Snappy is fully capable with its core caching capability, but if you want or need additional optimization and control, advanced settings are available at <a href="https://snappywp.me/" rel="nofollow ugc">snappywp.me</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li>HTML, CSS, and JavaScript minification</li>
<li>GZIP compression</li>
<li>Lazy loading for images and videos</li>
<li>Video embed optimization (YouTube/Vimeo facades)</li>
<li>Font preloading</li>
<li>Database cleanup (spam, revisions, transients)</li>
<li>Automatic weekly database optimization</li>
<li>Cache preloading from sitemap</li>
<li>Defer JavaScript with exclusions</li>
<li>Critical CSS extraction and inlining</li>
<li>WordPress Heartbeat control</li>
<li>Resource hints (preload, prefetch, DNS-prefetch)</li>
<li>Browser caching headers via .htaccess</li>
<li>Security headers (X-Frame-Options, CSP, etc.)</li>
<li>Cloudflare integration with optimized settings</li>
<li>CDN integration with URL rewriting</li>
<li>Settings import/export</li>
<li>Self-hosted update system</li>
</ul>
