[Bug 652952] Re: WL: php-eaccelerator php52

 

I second that wish. Nearly everyone which is using PHP is also using an
opcode cacher like eAccelerator, XCache or APC. So IUS Community should
also add these packages.

Current Workaround: Use eAccelerator-Package supplied by

Bug description:
Description: eAccelerator is a further development of the MMCache PHP Accelerator & Encoder.
           : It increases performance of PHP scripts by caching them in compiled state, so
           : that the overhead of compiling is almost completely eliminated.
(taken from the current RHEL5 version)

REASON: we have a large website running a web content management system based on php, upgrading to php52 fixed some issues for us, but the performance got a lot worse due to eaccelerator not being provided with php52 (or php53 for that matter). The median HTTP round-trip time almost trippled. eaccelerator is a cheap and very effective way of improving php performance.
