Re: php 5.2.0

Well, I'm in no position to ask anyone for anything, but... here goes anyway ;) APC is a good caching mechanism, but is lacking in optimization features, where for example (to my knowledge anyway) Zend Optimizer is doing a good job. Since it looks like APC is going to be included in PHP 6 by default, maybe it's getting more and more interesting to invest time in optimization algorithms to enhance APC? I think it's probably the one area in which the most performance gain for users can be achieved. - Ron "Ilia Alshanetsky" <ilia@prohost.org> wrote in message news:B1DAA5C9-7F01-4E68-9205-3FE1CD2C8D65@prohost.org... > Heh, Lukas preempted by e-mail a bit, but the bottom line is that the > next release in the 5.X series is going to be 5.2.0.
