 * Hi,
 * I recently changed servers on my website. On the new server, I am using W3 Total
   Cache.
 * This seems to break the cache function of the plugin. I used to have it at two
   weeks, and use chron jobs to reset it at specific hours. Now, the plugin makes
   constantly calls to Google Analytics, even without the Chron jobs, I literally
   refresh the page and see new views. By the early afternoon, I reach the quota.
 * Any idea which part of W3 Total Cache is responsible for this? I suspect that
   it might be the Database Cache on Memcached. Unfortunately, I couldn’t investigate
   it before I reached the quota.
 * Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

 * I have tried adding an exception in the Database Cache of the W3 Total Cache,
   but, unfortunately, it didn’t change anything.

 * The problem seems to be that there is no _transient_gapp-transient- and _transient_timeout_gapp-
   transient- created in wp_options, which, if I understand correctly the plugin’s
   function, control the caching.

 * Hi Angelos,
 * That’s weird because I use the standard WordPress cache methods in order to make
   it compatible with any cache system.
 * If you disable the memcached cache in W3 does it change something?
