If it only takes 2 months, go for it, userland cache would be really awesome to have but an opcode cache in core is far better. APC is already very difficult to manage and integrate (6+ months), so why not integrate O+ in the first place and in the next PHP release an userland cache space? It could be a simplified and easier-to-maintain APC version and it would help to keep everything as modular as possible. Greetings.
