Re: Accellerators and Encryptors: Taking Scripts to the Next Level

Search the archives for Turck and MMcache, yes they work, the degree differs depending on how much the database is used but you will see a performance increase. Turck is open source and very good, I wrote a web based encoder front end to it http://phpcoder.shadonet.com or you can use the included command line tool. http://www.turcksoft.com/en/e_mmc.htm Dan Anderson wrote:

On this listserv I have heard quite a bit of talk about "accelerators". And I have also seen some advertisements about "Encryptors" -- letting PHP code be sold in a byte compiled type form so your clients can't pirate your scripts. Do these things work? And if they do, can you recommend any? Are free tools (OpenSource) better then pay tools, or is there a definite gain for pay tools? Thanks in advance, -Dan
