  Eaccelerator - For those running PHP on their own servers

Not sure how many people have their own VPS or dedicated server, but if you do and run PHP then have a look at:

eAccelerator - Trac

Used to use PHP accelerators a while back, and thought about putting one on today to improve performance. Unfortunately, most of them are now out of date, but found the one above and gave it a go.

Really easy to install, and has made a very noticeable difference. Although page loading times were fast on my server anyway, they are near instant now - really impressed with it!

As well as speeding up page loading times, it's dropped the memory and CPU usage by a fair bit as well, so improvements all round.

If you have 30 minutes to so spare it's well worth having a look at it. I went for the source code install from the page above and it was fairly simple. Had to add the PHP development files to my server to compile it, but Yum or Apt make that easy.

  Re: Eaccelerator - For those running PHP on their own servers

I have to second what tbp is saying - definitely worth the install.

I have a couple of VPS's and within WHM and under Software Apache Update then using easyApache there is an option to rebuild with eAccelerator (do not forget to check that Zend is also present) - so for me it was a case of ticking the checkbox and doing the rebuild (I am using php 5.2.5 / Apache 2 / FastCgi installed) - ideal for a non-techie like myself. Worked for me but use with care although I suppose the more technically minded could add to what I have said.

Less than 10 minutes work and one cup of coffee to do the rebuild!

Took me a couple of hours to install as I had to install some packages it depended on first (and most of that time was spent hunting those packages down) but even so - works a dream - well recommended.
