PHP doesn't cache pages - the browser (and potentially routers between the
server and the client) cache pages. The only way you *may* be able to affect
caching is with the expires html header - but that may be ignored.
But personally I think you're worrying about a problem which doesn't exist. A
webserver (even Windows) on any decently performing hardware should be able to
run hundreds of hits per second.
