Can Zend Optimizer work fine with Uniform Server?

[Dixcuxx]

I need to install Zend Optimizer for a software package. I know there is eAccelerator in Uniform Server so I wonder if I can install Zend Optimizer and run fine with Uniforum Server. Thanks!

[olajideolaolorun]

Yes it can, but am not sure if it will with eAccelerator... but try it.

You are a project manager but you don't even know, then how can I believe in Uniform Server?

[olajideolaolorun]

Wow, do you need God to believe something good is good? lol.

 

I have tested Zend Optimizer with Uniform Server, works perfect, but am not so sure if it was with eAccelerator installed. I cant remember... and anyways, all you have to do is install it and if problems, deactivate eAccelerator, if anything else, come back here for 24/7 fast support.

Thanks for your answer. Do you think I should install XAMPP but not Uniform Server since XAMPP is much popular with Zend Optimizer built in?

I see diplomacy is not your strong point! “Do you think I should install XAMPP but not Uniform Server since XAMPP is much popular with Zend Optimizer built in?”

 

Well XAMPP is an excellent piece of kit the only downside is one of size. Anyway before making a decision, take a look at this page:

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP_accelerator#Zend_Optimizer

 

I believe eAccelerator is faster especially on a USB stick.

 

However there is no reason why you cannot install Zend Optimizer on Uniform Server Mona. You do need to disable eAccelerator and set correct paths for Zend Optimizer in PHP's php.ini file something like this:

 

[eaccelerator]

;extension=eaccelerator.dll

;eaccelerator.allowed_admin_path=/home/admin/www/plugins/eaccelerator/control.php

;eaccelerator.debug = 0

 

[Zend]

zend_extension_ts = "\usr\local\php\zendOptimizer\lib\ZendExtensionManager.dll"

zend_extension_manager.optimizer_ts = "\usr\local\php\zendOptimizer\lib\Optimizer"

zend_optimizer.enable_loader = 0

zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15

 

You may be surprised at the lack of performance gain!

 

All the best

Thanks and you have your point. Well there is eaccelerator in XAMPP patch too so I can use it if I need. I need to install a software which uses zend optimizer so I have to use it. So other than size, people should choose XAMPP instead of uniformserver...

[olajideolaolorun]

I believe people have a choice

[Ric]

Thought I would bash out a quick plugin for Mona

 

Check out the following Wiki page for details.

 

An old write-up (for UniServer 3.3) can be found on UniCenter. If you feel inclined to work through the steps they are similar for the latest version V3.3.3 of Zend Optimizer.

 

Note: It’s not really a plugin hence installs to the PHP folder.

 

All the best

[olajideolaolorun]

Ric, you spelt Plugin, Pugin. lol

[Ric]

Tanks Olajide just to explain!

Pug is a dog, which describes my keyboard the space bar along with keys “l” and “g” require extra pressure to activate (like its slowly dying).

 

Anyway above link and Wiki page corrected.

 

All the best
