Description

Changes the famous Memcached WP Object Cache backend to actually use the Memcached class (not the Memcache class). Implements wp_cache_get_multi() and wp_cache_set_multi()

wp_cache_get_multi( array(
    array( 'key', 'group' ),
    array( 'key', '' ),
    array( 'key', 'group' ),
    'key'
) );

wp_cache_set_multi( array(
    array( 'key', 'data', 'group' ),
    array( 'key', 'data' )
) );

Best Object Cache plugin

Memcached PHP extension and memcached servers are widely supported by many hosts these days (2016). So, this plugin just works with most hosts. Now, I can't see any site without using this plugin for WP Object Cache!

Simple but it works!

Using the object cache plugin on my VPS from Upcloud managed with Serverpilot. Result? Everything feels much faster Using now php7.2 and can't wait that the memchached extension becomes available for php7.3
