I have been working on php54-pecl-apcu packages.  They have built and
tagged as test-candidate. They will be in placed in the testing repos
tonight and can take around 24 hours to hit all the mirrors.

See the following for information on how to use the testing repo:

-install-packages-from-testing

I do still have some concerns regarding its beta status.   We would look
forward to feedback regarding APCu in general and our packages.

Title:
  Zend OPcache package for PHP 5.2+

Status in IUS Community Project:
  New

Bug description:
  Using a PHP accelerator gives a drastic performance improvement in a
  PHP environment and the PECL package APC
  (http://pecl.php.net/package/APC) has historically been one of the
  best accelerators around.

  Latest stable version of APC is 3.1.9 but support for PHP 5.4 (current
  PHP stable) wasn't added until 3.1.10-beta and even latest version of
  APC 3.1.13 is considered beta.

  I don't believe we'll see much further updates to APC either as it has
  been decided that PHP 5.5 and onwards will include Zend OPcache
  (https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/php-5.5.0beta1/NEWS) which was
  recently open sourced (https://github.com/zend-dev/ZendOptimizerPlus)

  Zend OPcache is available, stable and supports PHP 5.2+
  For me it seems like a natural addition for IUS to add as a package at least for PHP 5.4, but perhaps also for older versions.
