I just want to know why people say eAccelerator won't work if SuPHP is enabled, because in my server I was running e-accelerator and now i have enabled suphp and it seems to be working fine so far at least ...

Questions are

  1. is this a good idea to run both ?
  2. if i am to disable the e-accelerator how do i do that ?
  3. is there any alternative to do acceleration other than the e-accelerator when using suphp ?
  4. What the tips for making the webserver fast with php ?
  5. Any idea of the performance and recommendation of the XCache opcode ?
linux

    SuPHP requires a script to run as a specific user, given this I am not sure if using SuPHP in your environment is a requirement or not.

    1. It is not a good idea because they do not work well together.
    2. Disable eaccelerator in your php.ini file
    3. There are no accelerators that work well with SuPHP. I believe this has to do with how suPHP works, and because it starts and stops PHP as it needs. All the accelerators require persistent PHP.
    4. If you are able to not use SuPHP, then I would highly consider using APC - see here
    5. XCache does not work with SuPHP either to my knowledge

    Look into FastCGI as it allows for caching to be setup and has lower overhead than SuPHP
