Xcache and Ioncube Loader?
Posted by Wes0805, 04-24-2012, 12:53 AM |
Is Xcache and Ioncube loader compatible with each other? Can I use both of them at the same time?
I need Xcache for a caching plugin for Wordpress while Ioncube loader for WHMCS.

yes, It is compatible . ioncube is not a caching modules. It is an encoding module for php.

You are right, but the question have a point. For instance, ZendOptimizer is not compatible with xCache or APC, only with eAccelerator.

I'm not very familiar with this but do I need to have the Zend framework and optimizer for IonCube Loader to work?

No, you don't. ZentOptimizer as well as IonCube Loader are for the same task but for differently encoded websites. If you need one IonCube, you don't have to install Zend too.

Currently, my VPS has eAccelerator, IonCube Loader and Zend Optimizer. But I see that Zend Engine is also there -- is this installed by default with PHP?
Since I want to use XCache and I need Ioncube Loader, then I can safely remove eAccelerator and Zend Optimizer (since it is not compatible with Xcache). Is this right?
Thanks for your help!

What's wrong with eAccelerator that you want to remove it? As for me, it's better than xCache.

I need Xcache for a Wordpress plugin. eAccelerator is not compatible with it. The only way for me to use it with the plugin is to use a lower version -- but I don't want to do that.

THe ioncube loader is compatible with Xcache, but the same time you can;t install zendoptimizer.

We've had to do extensive testing in this area. As far as speed and stability, eAccelerator was the best, followed by APC, while XCache has been by far the slowest, and least stable under load. The other advantages of eAccelerator are is it is most stackable with other products such as IONCube and Zend Optimizer on the same server at the same time. Where that is useful is when you have products that use both. It also has a nice interface to see statistics, turn it off and on, and clear cache.
