Obviously, I’m a big fan of the performance increases that can be achieved by using memcache. Another potential cache-based tool for enhancing your server-side PHP code is to use an opcode compiler and caching tool such as APC.
In addition to being a fantastic piece of technology by itself, APC also provides meaningful tuning options and detailed statistics. The screen shot here shows just a fraction of the information collected by APC.
So far, my experience with APC has been very positive, but don’t take my word for it. Check out some of the performance results: here, here and here.
As always, tuning to a particular application or server is critical. Be sure to read the manual!
