AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Minify is a mixed-rating WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Performance category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 3 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Minify works
Similar to what we use on eMusic – this software is still experimental, but take a look!
Automagically concatenates JS and CSS files that are output in wp_head() and wp_footer() – stores / serves them from Memcached (if installed) or Database. In a load-balanced environment, the generation of flat files can be expensive and hard to distribute. Minify takes advantage of Memcached and Site Options / Transients to do the work once and share it among all servers in your cluster. File names are dynamically-generated to allow cache-busting of a CDN like Akamai that doesn’t always cache-bust by query string.
New .htaccess rule!
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)?/?wp-content/cache/minify-(.+)-(.*).(css|js)$ /wp-content/plugins/minify/make.php?hash=$2&type=$4&incr=$3&site=$1 [L]
