php-apc-3.0.12p2-1mdv2007.0.x86_64.rpm

Description:

APC was conceived of to provide a way of boosting the performance of PHP on
heavily loaded sites by providing a way for scripts to be cached in a compiled
state, so that the overhead of parsing and compiling can be almost completely
eliminated. There are commercial products which provide this functionality, but
they are neither open-source nor free. Our goal was to level the playing field
by providing an implementation that allows greater flexibility and is
universally accessible.

We also wanted the cache to provide visibility into it's own workings and those
of PHP, so time was invested in providing internal diagnostic tools which allow
for cache diagnostics and maintenance.

Thus arrived APC. Since we were committed to developing a product which can
easily grow with new version of PHP, we implemented it as a zend extension,
allowing it to either be compiled into PHP or added post facto as a drop in
module. As with PHP, it is available completely free for commercial
and non-commercial use, under the same terms as PHP itself.

APC has been tested under PHP 4.0.3, 4.0.3pl1 and 4.0.4. It currently compiles
under Linux and FreeBSD. Patches for ports to other OSs/ PHP versions are
welcome.

NOTE!: php-apc has to be loaded last, very important!
