It's therefore nice that it's available for free 21-day evaluation on zend.com, isn't it? :)
I suppose that was not available when they started making those benchmarks. I don't know. Ask them.
Anyway, that does not matter because of what I said below regarding that they would not be comparing comparable things.
Anyway, it does not seem to make much sense to compare code acceleration based on plain caching/optimization like Turck and Zend Cache do, with acceleration plus content caching and compressing like ZPS do, because in that case you probably want to consider a solution of:
I agree, which is why I pointed out that comparing the Zend Performance Suite with Turck (or any other compiled code cache) simply doesn't make sense.
It makes sense comparing the performance the same features. They compare code caching + optimizing. Turck also does content caching. It is just not reflected in those charts because it is a recent feature.
mod_gzip for content compressions http://i4net.tv/marticle/mod_gzip/
And one of many dynamic content caching solutions like this one: http://www.phpclasses.org/filecacheclass
If you learned the product, you'd see that it offers many things that cannot be offered by mod_gzip nor any dynamic content caching class available in PHP (not to mention it's a heck of a lot easier to use).
I would not be that sure. Anyway, since I am not interested in paying for ZPS I have not studied your products in depth to comment. So, I can't guess what you are implying with those "many things that cannot be offered by mod_gzip nor any dynamic content caching class".
Personally I can only comment on the caching class solution that I mentioned because I developed it to offload significantly one very busy site.
Unless you care to be more specific on whatever you mean by what is not offered by that class that your content caching solution offers, it will just sound like marketing hype.
Of course, low end solutions can also take advantage of the solutions you mentioned.
