@Rimpy
I know this is old, but it should be noted that SuPHP will not work properly with APC since each request spawns a new php process and APC will only cache for the duration of a process.

The best way would be to cache the pages via a cache or accelerator like Varnish. We’ve released a Varnish plugin for cPanel and the performance improvement is even better than any opcode cache. Check it out if interested: http://www.unixy.net/varnish

So just a follow up to my last post. The reason PHP was not persisting was because CGI and not FastCGI was being used.

@Brandon Hi Brandon, Thanks for the guide definitely helped me understand the process. My problem is when running 'apc.php' It looks like the cache is new on every request(the uptime is 0 minutes). Is this because PHP is terminating after every request? If that is so does that mean that FastCGI is handling the process management instead of PHP? Or is just that PHP is exiting on its own? I am guessing that this is a PHP configuration problem, but I not entirely sure. Any help would be great. Thanks, Ben
