 * Hello there,
    I’m using this plugins in my websites (more than 20). This is the
   best plugin I ever heard. But unfortunately, we are facing issues on daily bases.
   Each and every day we have problems in 2-3 sites because of this plugins.
 * The site gets crashed due to Page Cache enabled.
    .htaccess file automatically
   updates with the content that are not a legal ones and not required.
 * We did all the required settings in it. Will you please help us to find out any
   specific reason for the problems ?
 * Here you can take a look at the settings we made in our sites:

 * It sounds like your website is running out of resources and causing them to crash.
   You have a setting in your W3TC Page Cache, it is the cache preload. Try reducing
   the amount of pages, or increase the amount of time in between.. See if this 
   helps.

 * Hi Destac,
    Thanks for reply. We do not have enabled that Cache preload. I hope
   its not compulsory to make it enabled. Please advise.

 * Today also I faced the css crash issue because of page cache enabled. I just 
   emptied the page cache and the site worked again fine.

 * Have you tried doing a manual minify as opposed to automatic?
