And memcached is not even the best option, using apc with W3 is few times faster than using memcached.

  You are talking about two different things here. Memcached is a memory store, while APC is a opcode cacher. W3 seems to be a plugin for Wordpress that serves pre-rendered pages using some mod_rewrite trickery.

    I meant under W3 there are more than one option for cache storage. http://i.imgur.com/OjbyvF2.png http://i.imgur.com/OjbyvF2.png and APC is faster than memcached in a single server environment http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1794342/memcache-vs-apc-f.. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1794342/memcache-vs-apc-f.... I assume that most people using php most likely already have apc installed (or they really should).

      Most people on WordPress and/or using PHP are on shared servers and thus cannot use APC.

    Erm, APC can be used as a memory store, too. http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2006/09/27/apc-or-memcached/ http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2006/09/27/apc-or-memcac...
