 * After the latest update, my transients started to behaving irregular. My plugin
   can use transients but i cant see them under wp_options. I know, they exist but
   I see them expired. It might be memcache related? When I disable litespeed, everything
   backs normal. Do you have ani idea?

 * [@izreview](https://wordpress.org/support/users/izreview/) in the latest version
   all transients are saved to Object cache(either Memcache or Redis) when OC is
   enabled.

 * When “Object Cache” disabled, backed to normal. Is this influence overall performance
   in bad way? I believe it will. Is there any way not to save transients to OC,
   but enable OC as before? which will be much better I think.

 * Can you try to set that TTL to weeks or a month to see?

 * Changed “Default Object Lifetime” to 604.800 seconds, but not changed. All transients
   seems to be expired as soon as created.

 * My site is in a shared hosting environment. In Litespeed Cache\Object “Object
   Cache” option is ON. But, Status is like that :
 * Status
 * Memcached Extension : Disabled
   Redis Extension : DisabledConnection Test: Failed
   [Learn More](https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/admin/#how-to-debug)
 * Is that means, I’m actually not using Object cache already and not getting performance
   benefits already? If the answer is yes, switching OFF the “Object Cache” seems
   a reasonable solution for me. Is there any benefit of this Object Cache ON, in
   this situation?
 * Sincerely.

 * [@izreview](https://wordpress.org/support/users/izreview/) yes, you are right.
   If that is the status overview, then no Object cache Extensions enabled.
   Please
   disable Object cache and test the site.In some situations(Object Cache) speeds
   up the site by using a faster solution to store data.

 * [@izreview](https://wordpress.org/support/users/izreview/) ok, that is something
   that temporary fixes the issue.
   Please help us debug the situation: your **ObjectCache**
   is activeIs Redis or Memcache library active and have the correct setup?The connection
   can be established, yes?

 * If you have OC running and extension running correctly, please also try do this
   in v7.8:
 * Change `$ttl = $expire ? $expire : $this->_cfg_life;` to `$ttl = $expire;` in

   to see if that resolve the issue or not. TIA.

 * Yesterday I asked my hosting provider to enable Memcached, and since then I get
   some improvement. Now, transients are not being expired as soon as created. Instead
   I can see transients from my plugin, but still can’t calculate/determine transient
   life. I believe, I can manage to handle this with minor re-programming’s.
 * In short, my problem’s source seems like not having memcached, but enabling Object
   Cache. In that configuration, it was working without problem, but after 7.8 version
   update, I get issues related to transients.
 * Ps* I tested your config change ($ttl = $expire;), but not seems working. (backing
   original config)
