PHP Acceleration Xcache vs APC
 

I just uninstalled xcache and went back to the APC what i used to use on our VPS and the site seems to run alot better , time will tell if the problems that arose after xcache was installed are remedied .

Why not use eAccelerator?

yeah I used ea for a long time - did a great job. I think when optimised correctly xcache is the best though.

Ive had 0 issues with xcache and have found it the fastest of the current php cache systems.

I've seen some benchmarks benchmarking XCache as slightly faster than APC (and faster than eAccelerator, etc.).

I haven't had any problems with XCache though.

xcache rules all the way with data store

Problems ?

Been using xcache for a long time now and never had any issues.

When ever i would create a new forum it would take 15 mins for it to show on the index , ITs was 15 Mins for any change out of the norm like user edits ... Banning and Ect... Nothing else was effected by this , i have not been back on APC long enough to say all the problems are gone , another thing is we were getting over 200 undeliverable emails with a mass email , we would manually go to all them accounts and remove the email , then a month would pass and we would send another mass email and 1/2 of them were the same ones we just took out and had to remove them again

xcache may be slightly faster but APC seems to be more reliable

is it possible to combine both datastore system like the filecache and apc together ? within vbulletin

No, you cannot do that within vBulletin. Why do you want to do that? There is no advantage. The datastore can only use one system at a time.
