# WP-Cache & WP-Super Cache Increasing CPU Usage

 * I’m trying to help somebody fine tune their WordPress install on a VPS and suggested
   that they try either WP-Cache or WP-Super-Cache to lessen the load that the blog
   creates on the server. Upon trying this, both plugins actually seem to drive 
   the load up considerably and crash their VPS. I’m sure it’s a plugin conflict,
   but I was curious to know if anyone else had seen this behavior – and if so, 
   what they did to remedy it.
 * I appreciate any guidance you can provide and will be glad to give anyone more
   info if necessary.

 * It seems to be caching for awhile and then just stop. For instance, yesterday,
   I deactivated it, then reactivated it and it started caching nicely. Now, it’s
   showing 0 cached pages. I’m guessing the tmp folder might be filling up?
 * Any ideas?

 * FWIW, you can get a bit more diagnostic info on RAM (and CPU) use with my new
   [WP Tuner](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wptuner/) plugin.
