The file cache feature has proven itself as stable already, IMHO it should be 
built by default in RC3.

With the new huge memory pages feature I'd suggest a bit softer - enabling its 
building, but setting opcache.enable_huge_code_pages=0 by default. Then it can 
be easy enable and give one more intermediate step for pre testing and go into 
RC4 completely if ok. What do you think?

Regards

Anatol
