What is the "Endurance Cache" feature in my WordPress website?

Question

I noticed this new wordpress version I'm running has a "Endurance Cache" option at the bottom of the "Settings > General" page.

That is caching all of the changes I'm doing on css. So whenever I update something the changes don't reflect on the browser instantaneously.

I'm wondering if that's wordpress native or if I can remove it.

I'm using wordpress 4.8.1.

My other website that has an older wordpress version doesn't have it.

It's not listed as an installed plugin. So that I don't think it is.

I'm using thesis theme.

thanks

It is a plugin installed by hostgator. They install two plugins "Endurance Browser Cache" and "Endurance Page Cache."

You can disable the Endurance Page Cache plugin by going to "Plugins" > "Must-Use" then locating the "Endurance Page Cache" plugin and clicking "disable."

The other plugin called "Endurance Browser Cache" does not have a disable button.

I hope this works for you. I do not know if hostgator will remove these plugins for you.
