Hi everyone,

Just a quick note to say that there's now an ebuild for ionCube's excellent 
php-accelerator v1.3.3r2:

Package   : dev-php/php-accelerator-1.3.3
Change    : initial release
Maintainer: Stuart Herbert <stuart@gentoo.org>
Keywords  : ~x86
Homepage  : http://www.php-accelerator.co.uk/
License   : freedist
Test Plans: tbd

Please test and feedback.  I'll consider marking this package as stable on 
Monday 11th Aug 2003 (just over two weeks away), depending on the bugs filed 
and feedback received.

Two words of caution:

1) Make sure you have php-ext-base.eclass v1.2 in /usr/portage/eclass before 
trying this.  php-ext-base.eclass v1.1 has a bug which prevents it from 
updating your php.ini files.  v1.2 should be hitting the rsync mirrors within 
the hour ;-)

2) I haven't extensively tested php-accelerator with Apache 2 (my production 
machines still run Apache 1).

Best regards,
Stu

Just a quick note on this. I have tested both php-accelerator and
mmcache on both apache1 and 2.

I was going to build a php-accelerator ebuild, but three things threw me
off,

1) it's not under a valid Open Source license (yet it might be later
on),
2) it's not available as source - only precompiled.
3) MMCache (which I've written an ebuild for) actually renders pages
approx. 60% faster than php-accelerator (I tested with PostNuke).

For these reasons I have written en ebuild for mmcache, which actually
has made it into the three (finally ;)

Did php-accelerator work for you?  I'm told that (like mmcache) it doesn't 
work on Apache2 with the threaded MPM.

And your ebuild for mmcache was much appreciated ;-)

php-accelerator worked fine for me (I don't remember if I got to try it
on apache2 though - but I think so). And I use MMcache on apache-2.0.47
right now - works like a charm - just emerge the ebuild, and improve
your performance ;)
