Hi All,

Just putting this out there... we're running Joomla and currently using
APC. Does it make sense to switch to eAccelerator? I've seen and heard a
mixed bag of reviews either way.

We are using php-fpm of course.

Any real world experience would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Benchmark it and see, is my advice. Switching is fairly easily, and
each will get different results based on the app and environment. For
us, apc is faster. For others, I've heard a different story.

I'm pretty sure I installed it via PECL with no problems ? but I will have
to revert back to my notes.

We're giving eaccelerator a spin, just to see how things go.

Hi,
According to the blogs, all 3 main accelerators give similar performance.
I'd recommend X-Cache simply because it was the least trouble to install.

On ubuntu you just type "aptitude install -y php5-xcache" and restart.
Any version of fpm which supports shared extensions ( fpm-0.6.3 ).

What's great to hear is that you are reporting that APC also works with FPM.
Could you give any details about the APC installation? How did it go?
And what's the distro / apc-version / php-version / fpm-version ?


Best regards
