Check. I used ab2 (Version 2.0.40) for testing, eaccelerator disabled.

ab2 -n 5000 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.2-trunk/cached.page'

Requests per second:    40.64 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       196.831 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       24.604 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          714.08 [Kbytes/sec] received

ab2 -n 5000 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.3-trunk/cached.page'

Requests per second:    33.12 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       241.556 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       30.194 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          42.30 [Kbytes/sec] received

Now I enabled eaccelerator:

ab2 -n 5000 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.2-trunk/cached.page'

Requests per second:    218.46 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       36.621 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       4.578 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          1524.92 [Kbytes/sec] received

ab2 -n 5000 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.3-trunk/cached.page'

Requests per second:    106.30 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       75.256 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       9.407 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          304.37 [Kbytes/sec] received

Here the requests/s are 19% (ea disabled) and 67% (ea enabled) slower.

ea disabled:

ab2 -n 500 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.2-trunk/user_int.page'

Requests per second:    2.70 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       2962.935 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       370.367 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          16.74 [Kbytes/sec] received

ab -n 500 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.3-trunk/user_int.page'

Requests per second:    24.46 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       327.064 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       40.883 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          151.65 [Kbytes/sec] received

ea enabled:

ab2 -n 500 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.2-trunk/user_int.page'

Requests per second:    5.07 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       1577.415 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       197.177 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          31.44 [Kbytes/sec] received

ab -n 500 -c 8 'http://localhost/typo3-4.3-trunk/user_int.page'

Requests per second:    101.38 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       78.915 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       9.864 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)
Transfer rate:          628.53 [Kbytes/sec] received

Here the increase of the performance is even bigger. But compared to 
your values either something must be wrong with my installation or you 
have a kick-ass server :-)
