Hi!
If there is a better alternative to APC we can bundle with PHP, I am definitely open to exploring that idea. However the alternatives I am familiar either are closed source or have licences incompatible with PHP, and that's without getting into the "better" argument.
I don't know any better one, but this is not what I am talking about. I am talking about enabling it by default - and I'm saying it seems to me dangerous now. That doesn't mean APC is worse than something else - it just means something enabled by default in PHP has (or should have) higher requirements than something that'd be compiled by people that need it when they need it - as it happens now. I don't see a pressing need to have some bytecode cache enabled by default in any build of PHP.
