They strongly recommend wp-cache in this video, but do your homework before installing it. Didn’t work for me with 2.9.x, and I think the author stopped supporting it. This is an old video now, things have changed.

Also, the made-up benchmarks for a fresh install are not useful, IMO. Don’t assume you can serve a “Hello World” post with no comments from a shared account 1 million times in a day because of this video.

Some great information here, thanks a lot. To be honest I don’t think I’ll be having a problem with this kind of traffic! Wish I did though! I’m sure it is a nice problem to have to be fair :) Good luck with dealing with all that bandwidth though!
