Please, please, please stop misinformation. :-) The accelerators *ALL* make their dramatic performance boost by CACHING the hard drive into RAM. Caching PHP Source would do *almost* as well. Caching the opcodes is a free bonus incremental improvement. The difference in the guts of the Zend Engine / Accelerator is putting the cache operation a few lines of code later/earlier, to store the opcodes instead of the source, so it's a no-brainer to store the opcodes instead for that extra few percent of performance. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
