"NuSphere?"

I've never heard of "NuSphere," and I do plenty of work with PHP and opcode optimizers. 158.228.11.38 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) apparently added it at the top, and I can only assume that it's conflict of interest and the person is promoting his/her obscure product. At the very least, it doesn't deserve to be ahead of any of those listed on the page to begin with. If anyone thinks that "NuSphere" fits Wikipedia's notability requirements, please speak up. Otherwise, I'm going to assume that it's okay to give it the axe due to it not being notable. --koder 20:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Since nobody spoke up, I yanked it. --slakr 23:22, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NuSphere has been around for MANY years. I've heard of their IDE and other products many times in the past. I'm sure the IA Archive's WayBack machine could verify this if needed.--Bobbozzo (talk) 04:54, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

roadsend PHP Compiler

This is technically a PHP accelerator, though its a completely different idea. It compiles code from PHP scripts without using the Zend engine:

I think it should be added. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Informedbanker (talk • contribs) 18:07, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why not part of standard PHP

There must be a reason why bytecode caching is not already done by PHP itself. To be informative, this article should explain this reason. — Timwi (talk) 18:46, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Turck MMCache discountinued?

How can an open source product be"discontinued"? 24.16.145.189 (talk) 21:24, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The lead developer, Dmitry Stogov, left to go and work for Zend (IIRC he told me at the time that this was partly for commercial reasons), and as a result the project halted. Despite being opensource and under the GPL, I seem to remember some issues that hampered the project being continued as it was (perhaps because of the name), and the project eventually forked successfully as EAccelerator. With the lead developer gone, new versions of PHP up and coming to be supported and the project forked as a new opensource codebase with active developers, the last release of the original codebase became out of date and stagnant, to exist only for historical interest. If there were to be any new fork it would be from the latest EAccelerator codebase and not from the MMCache codebase.
