How to Increase Cache Size in eAccelerator

EAccelerator is a free open-source PHP accelerator and optimizer software. It increases the performance of PHP scripts by caching them in their compiled state. As an administrator, you can choose to increase the cache size of eAccelerator. Note that if you allocate more than the maximum limit for cache size, eAccelerator may fail to initialize. The limit is typically set by your system administrator. Contact the administrator if you are not sure of the cache size limit.

Instructions

1. Launch eAccelerator.

2. Type the following command in the terminal window:

   echo value > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax

   Replace "value" with the size in bytes you want to use for your cache size.

3. Press "Enter" key.
