Turck MMCache
With the addition of many communities and after already paying A LOT of money for a VPS with extended memory I needed to find a way to increase the delivery speed of our scripts while at the same time stopping memory spikes. I think I have found it:
How to install Turck MMCache
To install you can get your host to do it for you or follow these instructions:
| QUOTE |
| NOTICE: TurckMMCache will probably not work with newer versions of PHP. I recommend eAccelerator which was forked from TMMC. This HowTo has been only been tested on FreeBSD 4.x but should work for all Operating Systems with the required tools. Required Tools apache 1.3.xx mod_php autoconf automake libtool m4 1. Download Turck MMCache, extract it and cd into it wget https://aleron.dl.sourceforge.net/sou...e-2.4.6.tar.gz tar -zxf turck-mmcache-2.4.6.tar.gz cd turck-mmcache-2.4.6 2. Locate php and find where its installed which php Example Output: "/usr/local/php" ignore the /php, all we want is the prefix to the php directory. In my case it was "/usr/local" *All commands that are purple denote where you should substitue your php prefix 3. Create the configure files using the php prefix from the previous step /usr/local/bin/phpize 4. Compile Turck MMCache. ./configure --enable-mmcache=shared --with-php-config=/usr/local/bin/php-config make make install If there were no errors and it appeared to compile successfully please note where it put mmcache.so and we'll move on to the next step. 5. Configure Turck MMCache I assume you are going to use Turck MMCache as a zend extension, as such the following reflect that. You can use it as a php extension by removing the zend from the first line "zend_extension...." but I haven't messed with that. Edit your php.ini file and add the following right above the Zend entries. It is very important to add it ABOVE the zend configurations otherwise nothing will work. [mmcache] #the location of mmcache.so will vary on your installation zend_extension="/usr/lib/php4/mmcache.so" mmcache.shm_size="16" mmcache.cache_dir="/tmp/mmcache" mmcache.enable="1" mmcache.optimizer="1" mmcache.check_mtime="1" mmcache.debug="0" mmcache.filter="" mmcache.shm_max="0" mmcache.shm_ttl="0" mmcache.shm_prune_period="0" mmcache.shm_only="0" mmcache.compress="1" 6. Create the cache directory mkdir /tmp/mmcache chmod 0777 /tmp/mmcache 7. Test and make sure its working by placing the mmcache.php file in a publicly accessible location and try to access it from the web. If it works it will display a information page similar to the php info page. Recommended -- Since you control Turck MMCache through the mmcache.php file, its probably not the best idea to allow the entire world access to it. Move the mmcache_password.php file to a publicly accessible location and access it. Fill in a username and password and do what it tells you when it generates the key (You'll have to edit your php.ini file again ) After you have completed that, try accessing the mmcache.php file and make sure it requires authentication to access it, if so you can delete the mmcache_password.php and turck-mmcache-2.4.6[/b] directory at tar. |
I would like to thank jmstacey for the info: directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3900

I spent most of the day trying to figure out why CRON jobs refused to work all of a sudden. I checked everything and finally figured out with a little help from some good support that the culprit was MMCACHE, it that refused to let PHP start because of a recent auto update made by PHP. I immediately uninstalled MMCACHE as I cannot monitor every update the serve automatically makes.
