Gennady Feldman, in light of some of the recent talk about enhancing the performance of your PHP applications, has written up this new post comparing two of the more favored software packages - APC and Eaccelerator.   Some websites use other technologies like Java and face the exact same problems. There are different variables involved here and the most common one is database. So I thought i would post a couple of articles related to performance and tuning.   This this post of the series focuses on the first of the two - APC - and talks about places it's used and includes some general performance recommendations. These include "Don't try to throw everything at your poor database" and the importance of XDebug.

In a follow-up to a previous blog post, Alexey Zakhlestin shares a few more thoughts on the project and the proper object hierarchy's going for.   actually, I changed it completely 3 times already in my thoughts. I finally "see the light"(tm) and will implement it on a weekend. I think about converting SCGI-part to a simple "driver" and move all http-related stuff to a separate driver-agnostic set of classes. This way, I would be able to implement FastCGI as anther driver without altering applications. If you have any better ideas - let me know.   He also includes a link to another sample application that uses the functionality to create a pie chart (including some benchmarks) with the help of the eZ components framework.
