Speeding Up WordPress

March 6, 2010 by Dan Zappone 2 Comments

A PHP accelerator typically reduces server load and increases the speed of PHP code anywhere from 2-10 times.

APC is a free, open source accelerator that optimizes PHP intermediate code and caches data and compiled code from the PHP bytecode compiler in shared memory.
