Hi Alexander,

That's not true! The mailing lists show that there are still some people
taking care of it, and I truely believe that they will come up with a new
version one day...

My impression was that Turck-MMcache was much faster than phpAccelerator.
That's all I need, so I don't care about the rest.

BTW, Turck-MMcache seems to have better "change-detection" than PHPa because
I remember many problems of PHPa-users after updating TYPO3, but never had
such problems with MMcache. (However, cleaning the cache will solve this,
of course.)

TYPO3 does already support PHP5 but most of all extensions still don't!
There is a patch for Turck-MMcache that seems to make it work with PHP5 -
maybe have a try!

Not true.
