http://bwcache.bware.it/

We have used APC on several sites. It works wonders!!!

is abc a better alternative? Zend is also free ... so why would anyone use that as opposed to the zend optimizer.

APC is _much_ more powerful than the Zend Optimizer. You should compare it to the Zend Cache system (which costs 1500$ per cpu if I remember it correctly).

There will probably be problems. I see no need to do that however -- the Zend Optimizer doesn't really give any extra performance (in my experience it doesn't help that much).

Based om empirical experience, I would say that APC performs nearly as good - or as good - as Zend Cache.

The extra gain in Zend Cache is certainly not worth 1500$.

I don't know of any specific benchmarks, sorry.

Just uncomment the relevant lines in your php.ini and you should be okay.
