APC is a free, open, and robust framework for caching and optimizing PHP intermediate code.


It's a PHP extension.

APC is a php caching system so it caches the most used php code in ram so things run faster.

from wikipedia

"Alternative PHP Cache (APC) is a PHP extension for caching data and compiled code from the PHP bytecode compiler in shared memory, commonly known as a PHP accelerator. It is Open source and available for free under the PHP license."

Yahoo contributes to this Cache so it must be good ;)

I use it for my large forums.
