* Removed executor hooks, they weren't used anyway.
* Check if eA has a valid cache directory.
* Make the init of php fail if the initialisation of the shared memory
or cache directory failes.
* set shared memory size in eaccelerator.ini to 0 so the default OS
size is used.
* README updates
* Updated version to 0.9.4-rc1
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=122249#files

This is RC! Do not use on production unless tested before.

I would recommend everyone move away from the PHP eAccelerator / Zend Optimizer and instead install APC.

PHP / APC is going to be the path going forward

From what I hear APC doesn't work with Zend, so I'm sticking with eAccelerator for now, it's been working fine so far...

Preformance wise APC is almost identical to eAccelerator

I'm testing out APC running optimization level 1 and it blows away eAccelerator.

It also blows away Zend hehe
I can't see them not fixing that real soon though.

Except you do not need Zend optimizer, APC is the replacement for it

Will APC work with PHP 5.1.1? EAccelerator cannot compile under PHP 5.1.1.

I believe APC works with 5.1, try it out (:

I am also running under Level 1 and found the same. I had an initial load spike when I turned it on but it quickly settled down..

What other settings are you using HVU?

everyone agrees that it's faster, but it's not THAT much faster according to these benchmarks

Tim Dorr's test does not include having APC_optimization on. When it's on there is a HUGE difference.

How to install apc under Windows?

I download php_apc.dll from http://pecl4win.php.net/list.php/5_1 and copy php_apc.dll to extension dir. Then add extension=php_apc.dll as well as apc's cofigurations in php.ini. Finally, I try to start Apache, an error window popped out saying "php_apc.dll is NOT a valid win32 application". What's wrong with it? Have sent email inquiry to apc's maintainers but not yet receive response.
