[TYPO3] 'Symlinking' on Windows to reduce eAccelerator mem load?

[Joerg Wagner]

Hello Peter,

thanks for your answer.
Yes, I already use junction.exe from SysInternals. There are also some 
alternatives mentioned here:
http://wiki.typo3.org/index.php?title=Windows

But as I said, I assume the Win junctions to be completely transparent, so 
eAccelerator will cache each junction seperately because it cannot recognize 
that they all lead to the same source path. But I will create a test 
scenario soon to verify that and will report my findings...

THX again.
