They’re called transients, Matt

I just spent ten minutes in old code trying to remember what WordPress transients are called.

TIL: While creating a new site in a multisite, you cannot properly work with site transients since wp_installing() returns true and thus only uses the object cache and never checks the database.

So beware if you need to rely on this while not using an object cache.

Workaround: use a site option instead.
