I forwarding this to d-d since after a couple of days I still have no response from anyone on d-m willing to sponsor this package. I really hope that someone sees the need for a PHP script caching package in the Debian repository. I am also hoping that someone is willing to help me with rest of the steps in becoming a DD. (After a few years of using Debian and intending to try and become a DD, I have decided that it is time for me to get off my butt and do it. Especially since if I wait until I have "enough time" I will never do it.) -Roberto -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RFS: eaccelerator - PHP script cacher Date: Wed, 11 May 2005 00:43:06 -0400 From: Roberto C. Sanchez <roberto@familiasanchez.net> To: Debian Mentors <debian-mentors@lists.debian.org> CC: ola@opalsys.net Greetings debian-mentors (and Ola), Short story: after a recent upgrade of my server from Woody to Sarge, along with going from horde2 to horde3, I noticed that my PHP performance sucked :-( I embarked on a quest to learn about PHP performance tuning, and decided (among other things) to install a caching program. There is currently no cahcing program for PHP scripts in the Debian archive, so I packaged it up and am seeking a sponsor. Details: Package name: eacclereator License: GPL2 Description: Increases performance of PHP scripts by caching eAccelerator is a free open source PHP accelerator, optimizer, encoder and dynamic content cache for PHP. It increases performance of PHP scripts by caching them in compiled state, so that the overhead of compiling is almost completely eliminated. Also it uses some optimizations to speed up execution of PHP scripts. eAccelerator typically reduces server load and increases the speed of your PHP code by 1-10 times. . eAccelerator is a fork of TurckMMCache ( http://sourceforge.net/project/turckmm-cache/ ) . For more information see the eAccelerator homepage at http://eaccelerator.net/HomeUk You can get the binary and source packages from here: deb http://familiasanchez.net/~sanchezr/debian/ sarge main deb-src http://familiasanchez.net/~sanchezr/debian/ sarge main -Roberto -- Roberto C.
