Alternative PHP Cache, or APC, is a module for Apache servers which is employed to cache the output code of script applications. It is very useful for scripts with large source code and will boost such an Internet site as much as three times. PHP websites are dynamic and any time a user accesses a web page, the script hooks up to a database to get some content, after that the code is parsed and compiled before it's shown to the site visitor. In case the output code doesn't change however, that is the case with sites which show the same content at all times, such actions trigger needless reading and writing. What APC does is that it caches the already compiled code and delivers it every time visitors browse a website, so the database doesn't need to be accessed and the code doesn't need to be parsed and compiled again and again, which consequently minimizes the site loading time. The module could be very helpful for informational Internet sites, blogs, portfolios, etc.
