Any reason not to install APC?
Posted: Tue Apr 29, 2008 12:36 pm
I'm seeing a lot of recommendations around various places to install and use APC opcode cache framework.
http://pecl.php.net/package/APC
Is there any reason NOT to want to use APC? Or would you guys definitely recommend using it as well? I really don't know anything about caching other than the it's used to speed things up. I also know there are other opcode cache options as well, like eAccelerator, memcache or XCache... of which is the best I have no idea.
So, I'm kinda looking for some quick guidance... should I install APC? I run all kinds of php/mysql scripts, forums, photo galleries, blogs, etc...
Thanks!
