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

Sorry, but what have either of these got to do with xcache (or APC) ?

I have XCache on my VPS and it's working well.

It must have 100% to do with xcache because after i switched to APC everything returned to being instant with no delay

More reliable in a way that it can be better relied upon to work with out delay

It sounds like you didn't configure xcache correctly then, post what you had set in the xcache settings.

It also might be related to not being compiled correctly by whoever installed it for you.

I didnt configure xcache vbulletin.com configured xcache we just followed there advice ,Compared to Using Ever other vbulletin.com advice for server settings based on an optimize my server request , my server in default with APC is about 3 times better than with xcache and meeting all the vb.com recommended settings

I believe it's regarding the configuration of XCache, check the var_size variable for XCache, you may set up as 15 minutes, that's why you see the forum in 15 minutes.

for those folks who are happy with XCache, don't you guys get the following error message from time to time?:
Fatal error: Direct Instantiation of vB_Image_Abstract prohibited. in /includes/class_image.php on line 190.

vBulletin developer recommended using APC instead of XCache.

I've never gotten that error.
Where and when does it occur?
