<![CDATA[W3 Total Cache and Redis]]>So I used W3 Total Cache on one wordpress, and I selected Redis for caching (as it was one of the options).

Nevertheless, my website crashed over time, and looking at the console, I have errors regarding Redis all the time (this one is a sample):

Feb 12 11:30:40 [Tue Feb 12 11:30:40.186515 2019] [php7:notice] [pid 58] [client 172.18.0.1:41762] Redis server went away
Feb 12 11:30:40 [Tue Feb 12 11:30:40.188249 2019] [php7:warn] [pid 58] [client 172.18.0.1:41762] PHP Warning: Redis::pconnect(): connect() failed: Connection refused in /app/data/wp-content/plugins/w3-total-cache/Cache_Redis.php on line 351

To be honest, I don't have any idea if Redis is better than the other alternative (Opcode Alternative PHP Cache).

Right now I selected Opcode Cahce, do you mean the setting is currently without any effect? If so I think activating it would be good.

We can enable opcode cache by default.
